origin

_ _ Nyangnya (or native Chinese or overseas Chinese) refers to/kloc-the descendants of China in the Ming Dynasty who settled in Manraja (Malacca), Mamboboyi and Sri Lanka in the early 5th century.

_ _ Nyonya also includes a small number of Tang people who settled here in the Tang and Song Dynasties, but there is no source to prove that there were Tang people who settled here in the Tang and Song Dynasties, so generally _ _ Nyonya refers to the descendants of Daming. The culture of these descendants of Tang, Song and Ming Dynasties was influenced to some extent by local Malays or other non-Chinese ethnic groups.

The man's name is _ _, and the woman's name is Niangjiao. Before the 1960s, Nyaya was a Bumipute in Malaysia, but due to "some" political factors, she was classified as Chinese by the Malaysian government (that is, Malaysian Chinese) and lost her indigenous identity.

_ _ Nyonya's constitutional status in Malaysia today is no different from that of1the "newcomers" in the late 9th century. This _ _ people mainly immigrated to Southeast Asia during or before the Ming Dynasty in China. Most of them are from Fujian, China or Chaoshan, Guangdong, a few from Guangdong and Hakka, and many of them live with Malays.

Some cultures have the color of China traditional culture, such as their traditional wedding in China.

The language spoken by _ _ people is called _ _ dialect, not just Min dialect. When using Chinese grammar, according to different regions, the proportion of Malay and Thai words used in miscellaneous languages is also different. Some China people who have received Chinese education also call those China people who have received British education since childhood "_ _". This usage means contempt, which means that this China person has forgotten his ancestors several times or is not like China people.

In addition, the local Minnan people also have an idiom called "three generations become _". According to this definition, all the third-generation Chinese born in Malaysia have also become _ _, but this sentence does not contain contempt, only that the third-generation Chinese, because they have adapted to the local social environment, inevitably have local colors.

In addition, _ _ also refers to a self-proclaimed _ _, that is, Malacca, Penang and Singapore before Malaysia's independence today. They also call themselves "native Chinese"-"aborigines" in Malay, so "Cina- native Chinese" is a native Chinese.

In the Malay Peninsula in the19th century, this difference was obvious and important. "_ _" is a local, while "new visitors" are immigrants. Their living habits and political consciousness are not the same. Although most Chinese in Malaysia today are native-born, the word "native Chinese" has become a special title for "_ _ people".

In today's Malaysia, a Malaysian Chinese married a Malay, and their son is not Nyonya, but a hybrid. _ _ Nyonya is a special ethnic group in contemporary times. Special note: Chinese in Malaysia must change their Arabic names when they marry any Malay, such as Bin Abdullah and convert to Islam. )

Nyonya culture is influenced by Malay culture (such as diet, clothing and language) and China tradition (such as belief, name and ethnic identity), forming a unique comprehensive culture. It is worth mentioning that the uniform worn by the stewardess of Singapore Airlines is baju-kebaya of Nyonya Women's Wear, and the beaded slippers on her feet are Kasut-Manek of Nyonya Women's Wear.
