Hokkien Syllables

Post by anton »

good day ladies&gentlemen
大家好


I'm Hokkien origin but unfortunately unable to speak mother tongue. ;/(
Thanks goodness, here is found such a great forum to improve language.

I'd like to know if someone know "Table of Hokkian Syllable/Pronunciation", so that I can learn phonetic conversion with Mandarin (普通話/國語);

likewise Cantonese have "粵音節表" a lot on the web.
e.g. http://www.arts.cuhk.edu.hk/Lexis/lexi- ... lables.php

Btw, since there are many variants of 閩南, how to categorize the dialect if my grandpa come from HokChia (福清)?
I browse in wikipedia but could not find any.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Min_Nan

need to clarify that ontology (genetic classification):
Sino-Tibetan (漢藏語係) -> Chinese (漢語) -> Min (閩方言) -> ?Hokkian (閩南話) ->
?* AMoy (廈門)
?* ChangChew (漳州)
?* ChinChew (泉州)
?* TaiYu (台語)
?* HaiNan (海南)
?* TeoChew (潮州)

is PehOeJi (白話字) regarded as worldwide Hokkien standard for Romanization, or only in Taiwan?


thanks very much.
best regards,
anton
