Immigrants from Hangzhou

This has a lot to do with Hangzhou being the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty. Hangzhou is an authentic Wu-Yue cultural area, and the local dialect belongs to a small part of Wu dialect. However, due to the relocation of the capital to Hangzhou in the Southern Song Dynasty, a large number of immigrants from the northern Central Plains came to Hangzhou and merged with the local wuyue dialect. Therefore, compared with other Wu-speaking cities, such as Suzhou, Huzhou, Wuxi and Hangzhou dialects, there are more official words in local dialects, but the main body still belongs to Wu dialect, and there is no such thing.

As we all know, Hangzhou is a famous tourist city in the south of the Yangtze River. Like Suzhou, Hangzhou is also located in the land of plenty. It has been the richest area since ancient times. Hangjiahu, Suzhou, Xichang and Shanghai all belong to wuyue. When it comes to wuyue, many people should think of Wu Nong's soft language. For example, the Wu dialect in Suzhou and Shanghai has a great influence, but it is not easy to understand, but people from other cities in the Wu dialect area come to Hangzhou and stumble upon Hangzhou dialect. However, the accent seems to be more inclined to northern mandarin. For example, many words are close to the ordinary phonetic system, which is somewhat different from other Wu dialect areas.

For example, Xiao Yaer and Haier Lane are all manifestations of Hua Er. The reason why Hangzhou dialect has this phenomenon is also related to historical immigrants. You should know that Hangzhou is also a capital. In the Southern Song Dynasty, the capital moved to Hangzhou, and many people from the Central Plains also poured into Hangzhou. The northern dialect has had a fusion influence here, so the vocabulary of Mandarin in Hangzhou dialect began to increase, but it was only a part of the vocabulary. This is essentially different from Nanjing. Although Nanjing used to speak Wu dialect, almost all Wu speakers left Nanjing with the migration of population, so now Nanjing has become a Jianghuai Mandarin city, and Gaochun is still a Wu dialect area.

Therefore, Hangzhou still belongs to the Wu dialect city, and this Hangzhou dialect is only distributed in the urban area. Xiaoshan speaks authentic Wu dialect Shao Lin films, and Yuhang speaks Wu dialect, which belongs to Tiaoxi films and is closer to the accents of Huzhou and Tongxiang. Hangzhou is a large area, and the Chun 'an area in Jiande is mainly Huizhou Yanzhou film, so Hangzhou dialect does not belong to Henan dialect as some netizens said.
