MTL words with double reverse mapping
Revision as of 23:51, 26 August 2018 by LearnTaiwanese (talk | contribs) (Dictionary of Frequently-Used Taiwan Minnan)
There is a relatively small number of MTL words that can be converted to more than one valid POJ word. This happens because of loss of tone information when syllables are put together to form a word (tone sandhi).
A total of 96 MTL words with this property were found in the Maryknoll Taiwanese-English Dictionary. In general, they are two syllables, where the first syllable's citation tone is either tone 1 (high) or tone 5 (curving-up).
The following list of 125 MTL words includes data from both Maryknoll and Dictionary of Frequently-Used Taiwan Minnan:
