Cantonese tone
There were four tones and eight tones in the Middle Ages, and four tones and nine tones in Cantonese, in which the two tones of Yin Ru and Zhong Ru correspond to the entering tones of the voiced initials in the Middle Ages. In the Middle Ages, some voiced initials became voiced words in Cantonese, which is called "voiced words" or "voiced words", which is a phenomenon in many Chinese dialects.
However, doing things in the sun has not reversed the leveling, and the negative impact on "correspondence" is relatively slight. Therefore, Cantonese is especially suitable for reading predecessors' poems and writing ancient and modern poems that conform to the law. In this respect, only the three tones and four tones of Putonghua can't do it. Cantonese is of great value in preserving and developing China's classical poetry culture.
