Linguistic Features of Ningwu Dialect

First, the sound is thick, strong and loud, which is related to being located in the mountainous area. Because Ningwu was a nomadic area in ancient times, residents lived in the forests of Shan Ye all the year round, or collected wild fruits and vegetables, or herded cattle, sheep, mules and horses, and later reclaimed land in mountainous areas. Long-term field activities and production practice have formed a rough and magnificent language feature.

Second, overkill. In most areas of Ningwu dialect, the word Guguo is pronounced in Yang rhyme, and the main vowel is [a] (except Heke). For example: brother [ka? 3 13], sit [tsua? 53] 。

Thirdly, there are some archaic words in Ningwu dialect, such as "Gang (Yi)", "What", "Year" (last year) and "Ju".
