'''Frequently-Used Taiwanese Polysyllable Homophones''' were gathered by analyzing the ''[[Dictionary of Frequently-Used Taiwan Minnan]]'' (''MoeDict''). After we converted the original [[TL]] to [[MTL]], we found 361 words (rows) that are homophones. All are two-syllable, covering 178 MTL that usually match two rows each. Just five MTL match three rows each: ''{{x|hibang}}'', ''{{x|honghøea}}'', ''{{x|huiekhix}}'', ''{{x|kofkex}}'', ''{{x|teng'ar}}''.

Frequently-Used Taiwanese Polysyllable Homophones were gathered by analyzing the Dictionary of Frequently-Used Taiwan Minnan (MoeDict). After we converted the original TL to MTL, we found 361 entries (rows) that are homophones. All are two-syllable, covering 178 MTL that usually match two rows each. Just five MTL match three rows each: hibang, honghøea, huiekhix, kofkex, teng'ar.
