The Language Composition of Zhenjiang Dialect

The third great change of Zhenjiang dialect was at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, 1 126 (the first year of Jingkang), and the northern Jin army conquered Bianjing. 1 127 (the second year of Jingkang) In March, Jin Jun became the king of Chu, driving Hui, Qin Emperor and imperial clan back to the north and died in the Northern Song Dynasty. History is called "the change of Jingkang", or "the difficulty of Jingkang", "the disaster of Jingkang" and "the shame of Jingkang". Ruler Yi Guan Du Nan established the Southern Song Dynasty in Hangzhou. A large number of Han people in the Central Plains migrated to the south. Later, the Mongols occupied the Central Plains, which was seriously damaged. Jiangnan in the south, as the ruling center of the Southern Song Dynasty, replaced the Central Plains as a new economic center. This southern crossing took place in 1 127 (namely, the first year of Zhao Jianyan and the second year of Jingkang), so it is also called the southern crossing of Jian Yan. In order to escape the war, North Renye Fang moved southward on a large scale, and the war between Jianghuai became a major point, and Jianghuai Mandarin was roughly formed. At the turn of the Song Dynasty, many Jianghuai people entered Zhenjiang, which also had an impact on Zhenjiang language. Zhenjiang dialect officially broke away from Wu dialect area.

After that, Zhenjiang dialect tended to develop steadily, and Suzhou immigrants also had a certain influence on Zhenjiang dialect during the Hongwu period of Ming Dynasty, but the nature of the dialect remained unchanged. Because the cavalry is stationed, it is influenced by a little flag. For example, tomorrow is called "Menga" and what goes around comes around is called "Gore".

Some people with ulterior motives think that Zhenjiang dialect became Jianghuai Mandarin because of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Uprising, and the long hair in the city was slaughtered, resulting in a decrease in population, and the population in northern Jiangsu moved in. In fact, the influence of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was not so great, just as Hangzhou dialect was influenced by Bianliang dialect in the Southern Song Dynasty, which was different from the surrounding Wu dialect, but it still did not change the fundamental nature of Hangzhou dialect.
