英文释义

专有名词
  1. A region in eastern Guangdong, China, home of the Swatow, Jieyang and Teochew people. Historically composed of 8 counties belonging to the department of Chaozhou (潮州府), today it is equivalent to the 3 cities of Chaozhou, Shantou, and Jieyang.
    — The extant scholarship on Sinophone Thai literature attributes the uniqueness of such works as Stormy Yaowarat Road to three aspects of their evocation of Teochew: their use of the Chaoyang-Swatow (Chaoshan) dialect of Teochew (particularly in the spoken dialogues of the text), their depiction of specific Teochew cultural practices like the regions' unique opera (ngiu) and tea ceremony (gongfu cha), and their emphasis on Teochew cultural and linguistic cultivation and preservation-an emphasis woven into the theme of the narratives.
