In a country as large and linguistically diverse as China, how easy or difficult a particular dialect is a contentious issue. The author's post prompted a storm of replies on the puzzling nature of the country's languages.

像中国这样一个幅员辽阔、语言多样的国家，判断某种方言的难懂程度存在一定争议。该帖子引来大量网友回帖，对费解的中国语言吐槽。

'The distance between Wuhan and Xianning is less than 100 kilometers, but the dialects are mutually unintelligible. Yet I have no problems understanding the dialect in Enshi, which is 500 kilometers away,' wrote one Weibo user.

一位微博用户说，武汉和咸宁相距不到100公里，但却听不懂对方的方言，但他听500公里之外的恩施的方言却没有问题。

Other users questioned whether the author of the post had missed other dialects also worthy of being listed, including that spoken on Hainan island, China's southernmost province, where the dialect is part of the Minnan family of dialects but said to be incomprehensible to other Minnan speakers.

其他用户质疑作者是否漏掉了其他也应上榜的方言，其中包括海南岛的方言。海南方言也属于闽南方言，但据说其他说闽南话的人却听不懂海南方言。
