Formation factors of Gaozhou dialect

Gaozhou dialect is a branch of Cantonese, which is the same as Guangfu dialect. During the Qin Dynasty and Zhao Tuo, the king of South Vietnam, a large number of Zhongyuan people fled to Baiyue (namely Lingnan area) because of fleeing the war, and many Zhongyuan people scattered around Gaozhou today. When Zhao Tuo, the king of South Vietnam, was in power, he ceded the throne to Xi 'an, and Xi 'an led a large number of troops to enter. Under the collision of slang culture and Central Plains culture, a war broke out with slang people, and a large number of slang people fled to Hainan, leaving behind slang people who were gradually sinicized. Central Plains immigrants, Gaozhou primitive tribes and slang people gradually formed the embryonic form of Gaozhou vernacular in the process of living and communicating with each other.

At the end of the Liang Dynasty, there was chaos in the world. In order to ensure the peace of Lingnan, Mrs. Xian and her husband led the troops to quell the rebellion, and Lingnan fell from the suffering of war. The leader of Lingnan * * * gives priority to Fengxian, honoring Mrs. Fengxian as the "Virgin of Lingnan", which is also the place where Mrs. Fengxian under Liang's jurisdiction escaped from the war. Mrs. Xian fought in the battlefield all her life, and everywhere she went, many followers joined the Xian family army. In addition, Mrs. Xian led the army to quell the rebellion in Guangzhou many times, which made the communication with Guangzhou closer. Many rebellions in Guangzhou's history also caused many people to flee to Highlight. During the Liang, Chen and Sui dynasties, countless people in Guangzhou and Lingnan areas fled the war with Mrs. Xian and moved to Gaoliang. As a result, Cantonese was introduced into Gaozhou area, and after a long period of running-in, the current Gaozhou dialect was formed. According to Sui Shu, slang people "carve wood as a symbol" without words. Since Mrs. Xian and her husband got married, she has been "forbidding her own people to be obedient to others" and has taken the initiative to combine slang with Chinese language and writing. An imperial edict in Biography of Liang Shu and Hou Jing can prove this point. The imperial edict said, "I am the Emperor of Girder, and I am the Emperor of Earthquake. Returning to benevolence, drinking in the Jin area, expanding the territory, and going their separate ways across the Han Sea; Come to the imperial court and wait for the mountain to be slaughtered. The mysterious tortoise left Luo, and the pheasant returned to Feng. Hundreds of birds insert the same words. Hu Tian's Sui Shu records that Mrs. Xian spoke six paragraphs and used four first-person "I", while the old saying generally used the word "I", or used modesty or ellipsis. There are many inverted sentences in Gaozhou dialect that are still used today, and some commonly used words in Gaozhou dialect are also used, such as "Dezhi", "Jin Jing", "Xiang" and "Xiang". Although these words have undergone cultural modification, they still have obvious flavor of Gaozhou dialect.

Gaozhou is the residential center of Baiyue people in ancient times. From the Southern Dynasties to the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Gaozhou, under the leadership of its outstanding leader, Mrs. Xian, and her descendants, became the protagonist on the Lingnan historical stage at that time. A nation that has lived in western Guangdong for thousands of years, that is, the descendants of Guliangli, can still find evidence from places names, languages, folk customs and other fields. For example, many places in Gaozhou are named after Dong. It provides very vivid materials for the study of dialectology and toponymy. "Dong" and "Dong" are interlinked. Why is "Dong" not commonly used in other places, but has become a characteristic word in Gaozhou? Originally influenced by geographical environment, it also reflects the remains of ancient Baiyue language. "Cave" is adapted to the low level of productivity in ancient times, and its social organization is based on caves formed by blood relationship. Its leader is called "Cave Master", "Qu Shuai" or "Chang Shuai". The original meaning of cave or cave refers to the flat land between two mountains, and later it refers to the social organization formed by blood relationship, which has evolved from topographical terms into the name of social organization, such as "Zhu Man's Cave", "Shenke's constant crusade against slang cave" and "Hu Ying's coming out of Panyu to conquer slang cave". People have not yet formed a large political organization. According to the Records of Foreign Bodies in Zhou Nan, "slang people" often have their own good looks in other villages, but there is no prince. "The Biography of Sui Shu Nanman" says (slang people) have no monarch and cave dwelling "and so on. Nowadays, there are many place names in Gaozhou, such as Gaodong, Chen Dong, Kangdong, Dong Lei, Zhengdong, Lidong, Lidong, Xindong and Jiandong. It can be said that "East" has become a small signboard of Mrs. Xian's culture in Gaozhou, and it is also a characteristic vocabulary of Gaozhou dialect. It provides very vivid materials for the study of dialectology and toponymy.
