The Formation of Jingjiang Dialect

In addition, the formation of Jingjiang dialect. Jingjiang dialect is like Jiangnan dialect (Wu dialect) but the region is not in Jiangnan; Jingjiang is in Jiangbei, and he is not speaking Jiangbei dialect (Jianghuai Mandarin). How did this unique language individual come into being? We analyze the situation of Jingjiang immigrants in three stages. Belongs to the Jiangnan period. After the Yuan Dynasty, Jingjiang was placed under the jurisdiction of Jiangyin. At this time, some people in Jiangyin began to transfer to Jingjiang. For example, Liu Xing, a native of Jiangxi province at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, was named "Thousand Households" because of his meritorious service in fighting bandits, and his descendants immediately settled in Jiangyin, Massachusetts and other places where they belonged, becoming a giant Han. Fan Zihui, a descendant of Fan Zhongyan in the Ming Dynasty, first lived in Jiangyin. Later, his father was robbed and drowned in the river, that is, he was involved in Yunmasha with his brother, and his countryside gradually opened up. After Jingjiang was established as a county, it belonged to Changzhou Prefecture. In the following 500 years, Jiangnan was under the jurisdiction of 460 years. Jingjiang has frequent contacts with Jiangnan, and the immigrants from Jiangnan gradually increase, which further strengthens the Wu dialect attribute of Jingjiang dialect and drives Jingjiang dialect to develop into modern Wu dialect. In Jingjiang, although Jingjiang dialect and Jianghuai dialect are only separated by a river in many places, the basic characteristics of Jingjiang Wu dialect can never be changed. However, since ancient times, people have moved from the northern dialect area to Jingjiang, and Jingjiang dialect has been surrounded by Jianghuai dialect for a long time, which inevitably incorporates the components of Jianghuai dialect, especially in terms of words. For example, "face" is not called "face", "dressing" is not called "dressing", negative adverb "bu" is not called "fu", and personal pronouns are "I, you, he", all of which are similar to Jianghuai dialect.
