Who knows the characteristics of Ganzhou dialect?

Where is the root of Ganzhou dialect? The popular saying is that when Wang Yangming was stationed in Ganzhou, he tried his best to promote this mandarin. In Song Cheng, Ganzhou, Han Zhenfei questioned this statement: "This legend is doubtful, because the language has a very tenacious inheritance, not to mention the ancient information is blocked. Even in today's information age, it seems impossible to promote a language by the administrative power of an official. ..... Thirdly, Wang Yangming is from Yuyao, Zhejiang, and his mother tongue is Wu. Even if Wang Yangming promotes Putonghua, it can only be' Zhejiang Mandarin', while Ganzhou people speak' Southwest Mandarin'. In fact, in ancient times, to change the public language of a region, only by immigration, only when the composition of residents changed significantly, the language would change. " According to his speculation, in the third year of Zheng De in Ming Dynasty, Chen Shu, Wang Yangming's predecessor, asked the court to transfer wolf soldiers from Guilin and Liuzhou in Guangxi because of frequent peasant uprisings in southern Jiangxi and insufficient local troops. This group brought Guilin Liuzhou dialect to Ganzhou and gradually formed Ganzhou Mandarin. After Wang Yangming took over, in order to prevent peasant rebels from entering the city to spy on the military situation, it was stipulated that people who could not speak Mandarin were not allowed to enter the city. This move further promoted Putonghua to become a popular language.

I searched the historical materials of Wang Yangming on the Internet. I think that although Wang Yangming is from Yuyao, Zhejiang Province, he was exiled to Longchangyi, Guizhou (now xiuwen county, Anshun City) for three to five years because he offended Zheng Dequan and valued Liu Jin. In these three years, Wang Yangming's academic thought has made a leap, which was later called "Longchang Enlightenment". He founded Longgang Academy, Wen Ming Academy and Guiyang Academy successively, which made the style of study in Guizhou prosperous, leaving many "Yangming Cave" and "Yangming Temple" so far, which shows the deep influence. Guizhou, Yunnan, Sichuan and Guangxi belong to the southwest mandarin area, including Anshun. Wang Yangming should be able to speak the local language in contact with scholars, students and the public. It seems conceivable that Ganzhou City has the basis for Guangxi Wolf Soldiers to spread Southwest Mandarin, and Wang Yangming is also familiar with and likes this language, so he vigorously promotes it. Only with the foundation of mass communication and the enforcement of power can Ganzhou Mandarin become an "isolated island" language.

These are just speculations. So far, Ganzhou has not conducted on-the-spot investigation and demonstration on this important humanistic and historical issue, and no one has studied the similarities and differences between Ganzhou dialect and Southwest Mandarin. There are many similarities in dialect slang, folk customs, diet and daily life. It has yet to be investigated and confirmed. I hope that the relevant departments can organize writers and experts to follow Tianjin's example and seek their roots.

If it is confirmed that "languages thousands of miles away are tied by a thread", then in addition to docking with Changsha, Zhuhai and Fujian, we can also strengthen exchanges with Guangxi and other provinces. Language is the most friendly medium, which will be beneficial to the development of Ganzhou's economy and tourism.

Ganzhou dialect is a distinctive language, catchy, easy to learn and understand, close to Mandarin, and has a unique charm. Strangely, it is only popular within the walls of Ganzhou, spanning the Donghe River, Xihe River and Nanhe River. Farmers in the suburbs speak Hakka, forming an "island" of language.

Coincidentally, Tianjin, a big city in the north, is also an "island" with language, known as "Tianjin dialect island", which is not bordered by the surrounding areas and is different from neighboring provinces such as Beijing, Hebei and Shandong. Recently, I read a small article by a Tianjin writer, saying that Tianjin dialect is very individual, giving people the feeling that Qifeng is protruding, as if "Feilaifeng" fell from the sky. In 1970s, Tianjin local chroniclers went out to look for the origin of Tianjin dialect, and they found it, not in the surrounding provinces and counties, nor in the land in the north. They found the hometown of Fengyang Flower Drum in the south of the Yangtze River, and finally locked it in a little-known place-ancient town, which is really incredible. Last year was the 600th anniversary of the founding of Tianjin, and writers from Tianjin College of Literature made a special trip to Anhui culture to find their roots. They came to the north bank of Huihe River, north of Bengbu, looking for the "mother soil" of Tianjin dialect. To their delight, they heard a lot of Tianjin dialect in the ancient town and saw the same folk customs, such as Erzi, frying jiaozi, fighting lights, watching and walking frequently. They saw many jiaozi in Tianjin in the street, and both places called jiaozi "flat food". They both like to eat "Tianjin-sized twist" and fried nao. They get to the bottom of it, only knowing that the prince of Yan swept to Tianjin in the north in the Ming Dynasty, and later the prince of Yan went south to seize the throne of his nephew, Emperor Jianwen. Hangzhou is also an "island" of language. Hangzhou dialect is different from Zhejiang dialect. When Emperor Gaozong moved Kyoto from Yingtianfu (now Shangqiu, Henan Province) to Lin 'an (Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province), he brought the Central Plains dialect to Hangzhou.

So where is the root of Ganzhou dialect? The popular saying is that when Wang Yangming was stationed in Ganzhou, he tried his best to promote this mandarin.
