Characteristics of Hui Language
Hui language retains many grammatical rules and pronunciations of ancient Chinese. It is characterized by softness, soothing and cadence. Since ancient times, because Huizhou is located in the mountainous area, the communication between districts and counties is limited, and the pronunciation cannot be unified. The pronunciation of Huizhou dialect in southern Anhui is very different. Even in a county, people often can't communicate normally in their own emblem language.
Huizhou dialect has a certain connection with Wu dialect, but the dialects of counties in Huizhou area are different. Ming Jiajing's "Huizhou Fuzhi" contains: "The languages of the six cities are unreasonable, and the dialects are similar, unless they are from Wu." The topography of Huizhou is dominated by hills and mountains, which is an extremely important factor that causes the "Gushan" dialect. In addition, Huizhou is located at the junction of Anhui, Zhejiang and Jiangxi provinces, and various dialects are easy to penetrate, especially the frequent exchanges between Huizhou merchants, which has brought complex influences to the formation of Huizhou dialects. However, Huizhou dialect is, after all, a single system of dialect as a whole, which has its own rules and similarities in pronunciation, vocabulary and grammar. Phonetically speaking, most of them are sharp sounds; Nasal consonant G, which interacts with K and X, is the standard root sound of the tongue. There is no "day [z]" but "[n]"; N rhyme is serious, such as "cat" pronounced as "person" in Xiuning dialect; Qimen dialect "cat" is pronounced as "cotton"; The word "cat" in Yixian dialect is pronounced as "destiny", which is similar in nature and function to the word "er" in Putonghua, except that it does not roll its tongue. Huizhou dialect has an entering tone, except Xiuning dialect, which is similar to the throat of Wu dialect, but it is not a real throat. There are many unique dialect words in Huizhou dialect, but there are differences among counties and origins. Some words still follow the ancient meaning, such as "first" or "sir"; "All kinds" are "short and messy beards"; "Nature" means "luck" and so on. Huizhou dialect has some unique morphemes with grammatical functions, among which "Ren" and "Da Jia" are plural. Some have structural combinations, indicating people in a certain field, such as "Yi", while others indicate affiliation, such as "Ge". Some unique verbs have many meanings, but they are not vague in sentences. For example, the word "emperor" has the meaning of "want", "want" and "want". How to use it in a sentence is clear at a glance. To indicate repetitive actions, in addition to adding adverb "zai" as an adverbial before the predicate, sometimes "Tian" is added at the end of the sentence, such as "eat another bowl of Tian".
Historically, Huizhou governed six counties, and Huizhou dialect actually refers to Shexian dialect, Jixi dialect, Xiuning dialect, yi county dialect, Qimen dialect and Wuyuan dialect. As for Jingde County, Taiping County and shitai county, which were assigned to Huizhou after liberation, most of their languages belong to Jiangguan dialect, but they are generally not assigned to Huizhou dialect. Shexian county has long been under the jurisdiction of prefectures and counties, governing Xiuning, Jixi and other places, so the so-called Huizhou dialect should be represented by Shexian dialect. However, during the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, coastal areas and foreigners moved into Tunxi one after another, and the population of Tunxi surged, which was once called "little shanghai". After liberation, Tunxi has long been the seat of this area, and Tunxi dialect can also be the representative of Huizhou dialect to some extent. Nuo Opera (Pinyin: nuó xì), also known as Nuo Dance, is a popular traditional dance in the Yangtze River valley of China. Dancers wear all kinds of simple and exaggerated masks with distinctive witchcraft colors. It was originally a prayer and prayer ceremony. It is recorded in The Analects of Confucius, Encyclopedia of Ancient and Modern Events and Etiquette of the Later Han Dynasty. On May 20th, 2006, Nuo Dance was approved by the State Council to be included in the first batch of national intangible cultural heritage list.
Huizhou is one of the regions with the richest Nuo culture. Since the Han Dynasty, there have been names of "Square Dance" and "Twelve Gods Dance", especially Wuyuan Nuo Dance and Qimen Nuo Dance.
Wuyuan Nuo dance, commonly known as "ghost dance" or "dancing ghosts", has a long history, many programs and unique styles. It is a living fossil in the study of the history of ancient dance art in China, which has attracted the attention of experts and scholars at home and abroad. Nuo dance is quite popular in Qingyuan Village, Qiukou Township and Likeng Village.
There are forty or fifty kinds of masks of Nuo dance, which are generally wood carvings, vivid, loyal, treacherous, ignorant, sad and happy. There are dozens of traditional programs of Nuo dance, such as Creation of the Earth, Liu Hai Beating Golden Toad, Two Monkeys Catching Ticks, Shooting the Sun in Houyi, Zhang Fei Sacrificing a Gun, Drunk Judge, and the Monkey King Descending Rat Essence. The dance moves are rough and simple. Wuyuan has 100 more than 200 Nuo dances. The exorcism class in Changjing Village, Qiukou Town has 19 actors and more than 30 masks, including 4 original woodcarving masks, which can perform 24 programs. The performance is simple, rough, exaggerated and concise. For example, in Genesis, the dancer hangs a mask of Pangu on his head, holding a big axe and chopping on all sides, showing the heroic spirit of Pangu, who created Gankun. "Drunk Judge" shows the drunken state in which the judge and the child play and play, with distinctive characters and interesting life. Dancing Flowers is a large-scale dance drama, which tells the historical story of Qin Ershi and Hu Hai usurping the throne. In the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, painters in Huizhou area and the main Huizhou painters living in other places at that time were good at describing their hometown with pen and ink and expressing their feelings through scenery. In painting theory, they admire the painter's personality and integrity, and their painting style tends to be desolate, with a distinctive literati yi pin style, which makes them shine brilliantly in China painting circles in the17th century. Because these painters have the same geographical relationship, life belief and painting style, they are called "Xin 'an Painting School".
Xin 'an Painting School has many members and strong strength. There are nearly 80 people with considerable painting skills, among whom about 20 are outstanding, which are divided into four levels: pioneers Cheng Jiasui, Li Yongchang and Li; Jian Jiang, the leader of the painting school; In its heyday, the main members were Yu, Wang Jisu, Wu, Cheng Sui, Dai Benxiao, Shun Tiansheng, Cheng Zhengqi, Zheng Lian, Wang Zhirui, Sun Yi, Cha Shibiao, Wang Hongdu and Xue Zhuang. Modern successor Huang. It is a printmaking school that rose in Huizhou in the middle of Ming Dynasty. Huizhou printmaking originated from engraving books, began in the Southern Song Dynasty, flourished in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, and gradually declined in the early Qing Dynasty. Huizhou prints flourished in Wanli period of Ming Dynasty, and Huizhou prints flourished in Wanli period of Qing Dynasty to Shunzhi period. From its rise, prosperity, innovation and dissemination, a complete Huizhou printmaking system has gradually formed.
The 1930s and 1980s were the preparation period for the birth and development of "New Huizhou Printmaking". These main figures are Lai Shaoqi, Zhengzhen and Shi Songling. After the mid-1980s, Anhui New Huizhou Printmaking entered a diversified period, and a group of young printmakers emerged. Among them, a new generation of printmakers, represented by Zhang Guolin, advanced along the road of "New Huizhou School" initiated by the older generation of printmakers.

February 2 nd: February 2 nd in the lunar calendar is the birthday of the land god. The ancient Huizhou is called "the dragon looks up" probably because there is more rain in midsummer and thunder can be heard, so there is this saying.

On this day, jiaozi is wrapped in a liter of glutinous rice to worship the land god. February 2 is also the birthday of Baihua, so it is also called "Flower Festival".

Woodworkers worship "Master Lu Ban", and in the morning, they are most afraid that someone will sit on his tool stool, which means sitting on the bench, but there is no business to do. Shops set up a "God of Wealth" to worship the "Grand Commander" all the year round, so as to make a prosperous business and make money.
