== Method ==
A frequency analysis was performed on the headwords of the ''[[Dictionary of Frequently-Used Taiwan Minnan]]'' (as found in ''[[MoeDict]]''). All sections were used except Japanese loanwords and idioms, but only main headwords were included (alternate readings were excluded). Each TRS was broken down into pre-sandhi syllables, yielding a total of 37,678 syllables, from which 2,128 unique syllables were counted. The syllables are sorted by frequency (count), then alphabetically, written in the original TRS, along with conversions to [[POJ]] and MTL.

All sections were used except Japanese loanwords and idioms, but only main headwords were included (alternate readings were excluded). Each [[TRS]] was broken down into pre-sandhi syllables, yielding a total of 37,678 syllables, which included 2,128 distinct syllables. The syllables are sorted by frequency (count), then alphabetically, written in the original TRS, along with conversions to [[POJ]] and MTL.
