Notes
1 As the volume notes in its introduction, “Taiwanese” is one of the terms used to refer to Taiwan’s majority language, the Minnan dialect originally brought to Taiwan by immigrants from southern Fujian. It is also often called “Hoklo” or “Holo” (Heluo), after the pronunciation of the term in the dialect itself (Weinstein, p. 2). This review follows Weinstein’s volume in using the term “Taiwanese.”
