Min Bei Chinese  

Definition

  • Min Bei Chinese or Northern Min is a group of Min varieties spoken in Nanping prefecture of northwestern Fujian. Early classifications of varieties of Chinese, divided Min into Northern and Southern subgroups. Later on, it was argued that the primary split was between inland and coastal groups. In a reclassification that has been followed by most dialectologists since, Northern Min was restricted to inland dialects of Nanping prefecture, and the coastal dialects were classified as Eastern Min.
