Notes

  • Source of the southern accents, esp. Yilan and Taichung
    • In the early 20th century, Ciangciw-speaking Hoklo people were dominant in the south and perhaps the central plains as well (Davidson 1903).
  • A major distinction of Ciangciw-oe is its tone sandhi, which changes the curving-up tone to basic tone, as opposed to low-falling tone as in Zoanciw-oe.
  • Ciangciw-oe is the source of the western terms Amoy ([e˨˩mui˧˥]) and Quemoy ([kim˧˧mui˧˥]).
    • A distinguishing feature of the coastal speech (esp. Gilaan) is the use of the vowel vui or ui in place of "ng": pvui (png, rice), muii (mngg, door)
