Method
A frequency analysis was performed on the headwords of the Dictionary of Frequently-Used Taiwan Minnan (as found in MoeDict), yielding 2,128 unique syllables. Only main headwords were analyzed (proverbs and variant readings, preceded by the forward slash, were excluded). The syllables and their frequency are sorted by frequency (across the headwords), then alphabetically, written in the original TRS, along with conversions to POJ, and MTL.
