The influence of ancient immigrants on dialects

China has a vast territory and many nationalities. Similarly, for thousands of years, China has formed a multicultural society. Among them, language and culture are a big category, and language can represent a nation. Now there are different languages in different regions of China, and now the state is mainly protecting these dialects in order to find ways to protect traditional culture.

Although there are so many languages, there are always some languages that are widely popular in different times. For example, the audience of Putonghua is limited now, and many of them are in one area. Especially in ancient times, the spread of language was even more difficult. People in many areas only stay in their hometown all their lives.

If we want to spread the language, we need more people to circulate it. The language is unreasonable and has a great influence on the country. Usually, many countries will define some official languages to facilitate communication and rule different regions. Among so many official languages in China, Southwest Mandarin is the best developed, and now it has a very wide spread, which has played a very important role in the development of the country.

As a kind of Chinese, Southwest Mandarin also has a very long history. As can be seen from the name, this kind of discourse is mainly popular in southwest China, and then it gradually spread and gradually became a familiar mandarin. At present, Southwest Mandarin has been distributed in nine provinces, which is the most widely distributed and used Mandarin.

So why can Southwest Mandarin develop so well? Closely related to these three reasons.

First of all, there is not much language barrier in Southwest Mandarin, which originally belongs to a northern dialect of Han nationality. So how did the northern dialect become popular in Southwest China? This is the influence of immigration. At the earliest time, there were a large number of ethnic minorities in southwest China, and the language in this area did not belong to the system of ancient Chinese. However, due to the war, a large number of Han Chinese immigrated to Xichuan, Huguang and other places, so many people turned the main ethnic group in Southwest China into Han Chinese, and so many Han Chinese came to Southwest China, which also helped the development and growth of Southwest Mandarin and ensured the communication ability of Southwest Mandarin.

Secondly, according to statistical analysis, the language system of Southwest Mandarin is relatively simple and easy to understand. Its development in these ancient mandarin is actually relatively late, but the later it starts, the easier it is to understand and develop. On the contrary, dialects like Wu dialect have not spread as well as expected, and Southwest Mandarin has another feature, which is very inclusive.

It was originally circulated in the past, influenced by different ethnic regions, and formed a special kind of Putonghua by blending with other dialects. Therefore, there are few obstacles in the spread, and the development of southwest China in recent years is getting faster and faster, and the spread is wider.

Contrary to the southwest mandarin, these languages in the southeast are very complicated. Many people think that the key factor that hinders the spread of Southeast language is that the internal components of Southeast language are too complex, many languages are used and the circulation between them is relatively small.

Southwest Mandarin is relatively unified internally, such as Guangxi dialect. In other parts of southwest China, some sounds and words are similar, which is more convenient for everyone to understand. Sometimes even if you don't learn other dialects, you can understand these words, which is a great advantage of southwest mandarin communication.

Finally, the development of southwest China in Ming and Qing Dynasties made the southwest Mandarin spread more widely. In fact, in ancient China, due to geographical advantages, a large number of people fled every time there was a war, such as Sichuan and other places. The central plains and southeast often become the centers of war, and the southwest develops with the help of constant immigrants. Putonghua also combines the characteristics of languages in different regions, so it is very representative in the domestic language system. However, the promotion of Putonghua now will affect the spread of many dialects, but it may not have such a great impact on Southwest Mandarin. For many people in southwest China, the local Mandarin is still the main language.
