Hong,
Thanks for the addition/ correction. Yes, there is considerable variation in the tones, just like there is considerable variation in the overall pronunciation. I, myself, use a rising tone in most cases for "tone 1" - because that's the way my wife pronounces it . But since you gotta start somewhere, I thought I'd just quote the Xiamen tone contours. It's like learning English - having learned British RP (received ponunciation), you'll have a hard time at first understanding a guy from say, TX - but after a few days, your ears will have adjusted completely.
Regards,
Leo

Hong,
Wonder where you get all these links from Some of them did not work, but I could open these:
www.zxp.ks.edu.tw/country3
www.mina.ks.edu.tw/mina4/index.htm
www.mina.ks.edu.tw/mina01/htm/main.htm
and they are pretty good! They are obviously meant for children, but I think they are also good for beginners (I'll definitely have a good look at them). Ephrium, if you know how to read Hanzi (and I guess you do) you might find them interesting, too.
Regards,
Aurelio
P.S.: This shows again that Taiwan is the best place to turn to to find information on Hokkien, hm.
