[[File:Map-Chinese Characters.png|thumb|450px|The Sinosphere of countries where [[Chinese characters]] were/are used to write the official/dominant languages. Dark Green - Traditional Chinese characters used almost exclusively (Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau). Medium Green - Simplified Chinese characters used formally but traditional characters continue wide usage (Singapore and Malaysia). Green - Simplified characters used almost exclusively (Mainland China). Light Green- Chinese characters used in conjunction with native writing systems (Japan and South Korea). Light Yellow - Chinese characters once used in the official language but no longer used (Mongolia, North Korea and Vietnam).]]
In der [[Areallinguistik]], bezieht sich '''Sinosphäre''' ({{zh|v=汉字文化圈|t=漢字文化圏|p=Hànzì Wénhuà Quān|b=Chinesische Schriftzeichen Kulturkreis}}) auf eine Gruppierung von Ländern und Regionen, die zurzeit mit einer Mehrheit der [[Han-Chinesen|chinesischen Bevölkerung]] bewohnt werden oder historisch unter dem [[Chinesische Kultur|chinesischen kulturellen]] Einfluss waren. Der Linguist James Matisoff prägte den Begriff "Sinosphäre" im Jahr 1990, als Kontrast zur "Indosphäre", "Ich beziehe mich auf die chinesischen und indischen Gebiete des linguistischen/kulturellen Einflusses in Südostasien als die '''Sinosphäre''' und die '''Indosphäre'''."<ref>Matisoff, James A. (1990). [http://www.ling.ohio-state.edu/~bjoseph/Ling611/Lx611Matisoff1990.pdf On Megalocomparison]. ''Language'' 66.1, p. 113.</ref>

The terms Chinese cultural sphere and [[Chinese character]] cultural sphere are used interchangeably with "Sinosphere" but have different denotations. Chinese cultural sphere denotes a grouping of countries, regions, and people which have participated in or been heavily influenced by the  [[Culture of China]], such as [[Tibet]] or [[Sichuan]]. Countries such as [[Japan]] or [[Viet Nam]] which did in the past or do now use the [[Chinese writing system]] denote the other sense.

==Origins==

This cultural region closely corresponds to the ancient "Sinic civilization" and its descendants, the "Far Eastern civilizations" (the Mainland and the Japanese ones), which [[Arnold J. Toynbee]] presented in the 1930s in "[[A Study of History]]", along with the [[Western world|Western]], Islamic, Eastern Orthodox, Indic, etc. civilizations, among the major "units of study" of the world's history.<ref>See the "family tree" of Toynbee's "civilizations" in any edition of Toynbee's own work, or e.g. as Fig.1 on p.16 of: "The Rhythms of History: A Universal Theory of Civilizations", By Stephen Blaha. Pingree-Hill Publishing, 2002. ISBN 0-9720795-7-2.

==Defining characteristics==
The Sinosphere is generally unified by first written language ability in [[Chinese language|Chinese]]. This defines the unifying factor as the influence of traditional Chinese cultural beliefs, marked by [[Confucianist]] social and moral ethics, [[Taoist]] or [[Mahayana Buddhist]] religious beliefs, as embodied in text using [[Chinese characters]]  (''[[Hanzi]]'' in Chinese, ''[[kanji]]'' in Japanese, ''[[hanja]]'' in Korean, and ''[[Chinese characters in Vietnamese|Hán tự]]'' in Vietnamese) whether within [[China proper]] or in a peripheral culture before it emerged from the dominance of the center.

Another indicator is the everyday use of [[chopsticks]], which also may have originated in China.
