Wuhu Dialect in Kan Kan (1)

Wuhu dialect in Anhui province refers to Wuhu dialect in principle, and Jiangnan dialect has the saying that "a hundred miles of different sounds and ten miles of different languages". The dialect in the suburbs of Wuhu basically belongs to Wu dialect, which is a branch of Jianghuai Mandarin. It's quite similar to Nanjing dialect. Jianghuai Mandarin, also known as Xiajiang Mandarin, is mainly distributed between Jianghuai in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River.

Historical origin: The formation of Jianghuai Mandarin can be traced back to the Wei and Jin Dynasties. According to historical records, from the late period of the Three Kingdoms War to the Wei and Jin Dynasties, a large number of Han people in the north, including the Central Plains, moved south to the Jianghuai area, especially after Yongjia's funeral. Due to the advantages of a large number of northern immigrants in population, politics, economy and culture, northern dialects have gradually integrated into and even gradually replaced the Wu dialect used by local people. In the long history, the northern dialect that later entered the region merged with the Wu dialect that replaced it, forming today's Jianghuai Mandarin. Wuhu, Anhui Province is a typical mixed area of Jianghuai Mandarin and Wu dialect, which has formed the dialect characteristics of mixed Mandarin and Wu dialect in Wuhu City and mixed Wu dialect in suburban counties of Wuhu.
