Where does Minnan dialect belong?

Minnan dialect (Man Lamngy vernacular words: b? n-l？ M-gú), also known as H! -ló-se (Taiwanese, Taiwanese, Heluo, etc. ) In Taiwan Province Province, it is also called Min Dialect (Southeast Asia, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, overseas), which belongs to a kind of Chinese Min Dialect and has the greatest influence. Linguistically, China linguists believe that Minnan dialect is a Chinese dialect, while western scholars believe that it is a language belonging to the Chinese language family. The word Minnan has broad and narrow meanings. In a broad sense, it refers to the academic collection of pan-Minnan languages, and in a narrow sense, it only refers to local Minnan languages. The narrow Minnan dialect distributed in countries and regions is mainly distributed in Taiwan Province Province of China and Quanzhou, Zhangzhou, Xiamen and Chinese mainland of Fujian. Xinluo district and Zhangping in Longyan, most of Datian in Sanming, and a small part of Youxi. And Minnan also includes Guangdong and Hainan. At the same time, it is also distributed in Chinese mainland and other parts of Southeast Asia: Jiangsu Province: Zhejiang Province, the southern mountainous area of Yixing City: mainly distributed in coastal areas: Kanmen, Yuhuan County, the main island of Dongtou County, Chenyu, Banping Island, Jue Yuan, Beiji Island, Niyu Island, Shanmen Town, Pingyang County, Danan Township, Shuitou Town, Tengjiao Town, Nanji Island on the east coast, the southeast corner of Taishun County, Moheng County, Xiwan Township and Lingxi in wencheng county County. Jiangxi Province: The northeast is near Zhejiang. Guangdong Province: The eastern coast is Hailufeng, Shanwei, Chaozhou and Jieyang. Wenchang dialect, as the representative, is distributed in all parts of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region: Southeast Asia: Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, Philippines, Myanmar, Brunei and other places; North America: Christmas Island, the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and other countries and regions where Minnan people immigrate. Minnan dialect has a long history, but except Taiwan Province Province and Fujian, the Minnan dialect in other areas has deteriorated. The pronunciation standard is based on the local Minnan dialect: Quanzhou dialect, Zhangzhou dialect, Zhangping dialect, Taiwan dialect and Xiamen dialect. All the branches of Minnan dialect originated from the original Quanzhou and Zhangzhou phonology, but due to the time of differentiation, regional barriers, the evolution of Zhang Quan phonology and other factors, there have been unequal differences and changes. Basically, according to different regions, it can be roughly divided into the following sub-dialects: Quanzhou Dialect, Zhangzhou Dialect, Taiwan Dialect, Xiamen Dialect, Chaozhou Dialect, Southeast Asian Chaozhou Dialect, Hailufeng Dialect, Hainan Dialect, Southeast Asian Hainan Dialect, Southern Zhejiang Min Dialect, Leizhou Dialect and Minnan Dialect. The reason why they spread so widely is mainly due to the migration of Minnan people. With the support of Fujian political envoys, tens of thousands of victims along Fujian coast will be recruited and transported to Taiwan Province for settlement. In the 18th year of Qing Shunzhi (166 1), Zheng Chenggong, king of Yanping County, expelled the Dutch and recovered Taiwan Province Province. More than 30,000 soldiers, including their families, stayed in Taiwan Province Province to farm. Most of these soldiers are from southern Fujian. At the same time, he also went to Zhang Quan and other places to recruit young people to reclaim Taiwan Province land. During this period, the number of tourists from Zhangzhou and Quanzhou to Taiwan reached 6.5438+0.5 million. After Emperor Kangxi (1683) and Zheng Keshuang, the grandson of Zheng Chenggong, surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, hundreds of thousands of people went to Taiwan along the coast of Zhang Quan. In the mid-Kangxi period of Qing Dynasty, the Qing government relaxed the sea ban, and a large number of Guangdong immigrants moved into Taiwan Province Province. 1862, Shen Baozhen, an imperial envoy, came to Taiwan to deal with defense and attract wilderness, thus lifting the ban on crossing Taiwan for nearly 200 years again. Most of Hai Lufeng are Minnan immigrants, and some of them are descendants of Minnan people in Southeast Asia. The social circles and families of Fujian people also use Minnan language. Minnan dialect is popular in some places in northeast Fujian, Shangrao, Wenzhou Pingyang and Yuhuan in Jiangxi, Taizhou, Zhoushan Islands and Ningbo in southern Zhejiang, Shangrao, Qianshan, Guangfeng and Yushan in Shangrao in northeast Jiangxi, near Chengdu in Sichuan, Guiping, Beiliu and Liuzhou in southeast Guangxi, Yixing in Jiangsu and Luzhou in Sichuan. The Minnan dialect in Guangxi is influenced by the surrounding dialects, so the Minnan dialect in these areas is very different from that in Fujian. Classification of Minnan dialect In terms of language system, Minnan dialect is considered as a Chinese dialect by most linguists in China. As far back as 1500 years ago, or even earlier, the Han people in the Central Plains of the Yellow River in Luoshui moved to Gwangju, Henan Province to escape the war. The culture of the Han people was brought here by their descendants, then moved to Minnan, and finally crossed the strait to Taiwan Province Province, so it was called Heluo dialect. The language that Minnan and Taiwan Province Province use to inherit this culture is what we are used to saying "Minnan dialect". In the long history of the traditional culture of the motherland, the significance of Minnan dialect lies in that our ancestors avoided the language reform brought about by ethnic integration in the Central Plains during the great migration period and completely preserved the ancient Chinese pronunciation of the Han Dynasty, that is, the standard pronunciation of the Central Plains. Because Japanese mainly comes from the fusion of the ancient Chinese of the Han nationality in China who migrated to Japan, the languages of the northern minorities in China and Malay, when Japanese read Buddhist scriptures and recite poems today, the pronunciation of reciting poems is almost the same as that of Minnan people, which is enough to explain why many Buddhist scriptures are transliterated or paraphrased in Putonghua, while Minnan is easy to understand. This is why many mages often lament that the loss of Chinese pronunciation in Minnan is a great loss for people who recite Buddhist scriptures. Proud, today's Minnan language has become one of the representatives of 60 major languages on the earth, and it has also been recorded on the gold-plated record of the "Releaser" spacecraft launched by the United States in 1997, looking for bosom friends in the vast galaxy. Minnan-speaking areas are distributed in Quanzhou, Zhangzhou, Longyan (xinluo district and Zhangping) and Xiamen, surrounding Datian and Youxi County, and other places concentrated inside and outside the province (such as Dongtou, Cangnan, Pingyang, southern Zhejiang ... Fuding in northeast Fujian ... Yuedong, Leizhou Peninsula and Hainan Island). In addition, there are many Minnan islands in many parts of the province, such as Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Jiangxi, Guangdong and Guangxi. Most Chinese in Nanyang countries also speak Minnan dialect (including Chaoshan dialect), which is widely distributed!
