Today what I want to show you is the dialect of Yue (粤语 yuèyǔ). Yue is a variety of Chinese spoken mostly in Guangdong (广东 Guǎngdōng), Guangxi (广西 Guǎngxī),Hong Kong (香港 Xiānggǎng) and Macau (澳门 Aomén). You can also find significant Yue-speaking communities overseas in Southeast Asia, Canada, Australia, the United kingdom and USA. There are also considerable Yue-speaking communities overseas in Southeast Asia, Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom and USA.
Yue is also referred to Cantonese, which may refer to the Yue varieties of Chinese being a whole. In Guangdong and Guanxi people typically call their language yuhtyúh (粤语 yuèyǔ) or baahkwá (白话 báihuà), which refers especially to the Guangzhou variety.
The pronunciation of Yue is thought to be closer to that of older forms of Chinese, specifically that of the Tang Dynasty (618-907 AD), than Mandarin, as is some of its grammar. For instance, several old poems that do rhyme when read with Yue pronunciation do not rhyme in Mandarin pronunciation. It is believed that officials and other folks who had been exiled or migrated to southern China for the duration of the Tang Dynasty brought their assortment of Chinese with them to Guangdong. As a result of the southern region's relative remoteness and the lack of efficient communications and transport, the Tang selection survived reasonably unchanged.
Varieties of Yue contain:
Cantonese, Guangfu or Yuehai (粤海 Yuèhǎi), which involves the language ofGuangzhou (广州 Guǎngzhōu) as well as the surrounding locations of Zhongshan (中山 Zhōngshān), Wuzhou (梧州 Wúzhōu), and Foshan (佛山 Fóshān), too as Hong Kong and Macau
Si-yi, that's spoken mainly in Guangdong. One particular subvariety of Seiyap (四邑方言 Sìyì fāngyán), Taishanese (台山话 Tāishānhuà), was the primary range spoken in Chinese communities while in the USA prior to about 1970.
