How did Hakka come from!

Hakka, also known as Hakka, Hakka, Hakka, etc. Also known as Ya dialect, Xinmin dialect, Tukan dialect and Yuedong dialect. It is a kind of tonal language in the Sino-Tibetan Chinese language family, and was defined as a language by UNESCO in 2009. Linguists still have some arguments about whether Hakka dialect should be classified as a dialect or a language. Hakka dialect is regarded as one of the seven major dialects in China. Hakka dialect areas are mainly concentrated in the Hakka areas of Jiangxi, Fujian and Guangdong at the junction of eastern Guangdong, western Fujian and southern Jiangxi, and are widely used in southern China, Taiwan Province Province, Malaysia and some Chinese communities. It is generally believed that Hakka dialect was originally formed in the Southern Song Dynasty, but it was not named Hakka until the 20th century. Hakka dialect is represented by Meixian dialect.

Some people think that during several wars and turmoil in history, Hakkas first migrated from North China to South China with the migration tide. Their ancestors migrated from today's Henan Province and Shanxi Province, and brought with them the characteristics of their local languages. Since then, the languages in these areas have gradually evolved into the current Mandarin dialect. The ancestors of Hakkas were originally Han Chinese in the Central Plains. Some people think that Hakka people originated in the mountainous areas of Jiangxi and Guangdong, and many phonetic features of ancient Chinese, including the suffix consonant [-p] [-t] [-k] which can also be found in other southern dialects, have disappeared in some northern Putonghua.

Due to the migration of Hakkas, Hakka dialects will be influenced by the dialects of Hakka ancestors. For example, many * * words can be found in Hakka, Minnan and Cantonese. For example, in Cantonese, the word "caring for cows" used by the indigenous inhabitants of the New Territories in Hong Kong is the same as that used in Hakka.

On the basis of inheriting ancient Chinese, the pronunciation of Hakka dialect has undergone regular phonetic changes. For example, in Middle Chinese, the Chinese initials "Ren" and "Ri" (Japanese initials) are pronounced as (R) in Mandarin and most Chinese dialects today, but as (ng) and IPA[? ] or [? ]; The middle Chinese pronunciation of "Wu" is [mvu], while Hakka dialect is changed to [vu]([v] does not exist as a phoneme in most Chinese dialects, which becomes the characteristic of Hakka dialect).
