Abstract

There are some relatives which often can be seen in Hakka dialects and Gan dialects but rarely seen in other dialects. This paper gives a detailed depiction about them. Based on this and some other language materials and relevant historical data, it was found that Hakka dialects and Gan dialects were an organic body in the initial stage. After their separation, they developed differently and the gap between them became wider and wider. And then, Hakka dialects and Gan dialects have formed respectively.
