[edit] Is Hainanese a Yue dialect?
Hainanese is similar to Cantonese in grammar and pronunications and, also the proximity of Canton and their continuous contact with each others, one can say that Hainanese dialect can be classed as a Yue dialect. I think more linguists should research the Hainanese dialect again. Hainanese dialect should be called the Southwestern Cantonese dialect. Sonic99 03:47, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
