Bai-Yu village is the region for the southern Min Hakka people to inhabit in Guanyin Township, Taoyuan County. The Huang surname of southern Fujianese live here, and most of their families are intermarriage with the Hakka people. Because of the Southern Min having kept in touch with Hakka for a long time, their dialects are influenced by the Hailu Hakka, Sihsian Hakka, and other Hakka dialect. Therefore, Bai-Yu Hakka possesses its unique phenomenon in phonology and in vocabulary.
This thesis is divided into five chapters. Chapter one is the introduction, including research motive and purpose, research method, literature review, and historical background. Chapter two focus on the tone as well as rhyme of Hailu Hakka in Bai-Yu village. Chapter three deals with the reservation phenomenon of Taiwan South Min in Bai-Yu Southern Min Hakka, and discussed its onset, rime, and tone separately. In addition, compare with the lexical reservation among Hakka, Taiwan South Min, and other Hakka dialect in Bai-Yu village, and then conclude the phonetic character of Taiwan South Min Hakka in Bai-Yu village. Chapter four, discuss the Taiwan South Min lexical reservation in Bai-Yu Southern Min Hakka, and induce its partly as well as fully lexical reservation. Chapter five is the conclusion. Through comparison, besides the Taiwan South Min phonetic and lexical phenomenon is preserved, Bai-Yu Southern Min Hakka holds its own innovative and unique features too.
