A comparative study of the sounds of Kuo-Yu and Taiwanese
Get PDFThis study was made to explore the pronunciation rules between Taiwanese and Kuo-yu, which are the two major languages used in Taiwan today, by comparing selected features of their phonological systems. The purpose was to provide the future researchers and Taiwanese learners more information on sounds, which will be helpful in the maintenance and future development of the Taiwanese language.
In the introduction, there is a brief description of the background and formation of Taiwanese and Kuo-yu. In chapter two, the syllable structure and phonetic systems of Taiwanese and Kuo-yu are introduced. The following three chapters are about the three basic parts of every Kuo-yu and Taiwanese words: the tone, the onset and the rhyme. The theory used in this study is generative phonology. The data are basically from the library documents and the personal knowledge of the author on these two languages.
The deficiency of the collected information on printed documents sets limitations on this research. The rules of tone change also need further discussion. This comparative study covers the basic rules of the sounds of Kuo-yu and Taiwanese, which may help to define the relationship between these two languages

No full textThis article describes how librarians created a Wikipedia article on cultural competence in health care to support the medical school’s curriculum. Wikipedia, often considered not as reliable as scholarly articles, continues to be popular. Rutgers librarians conducted a Wikipedia project to improve its content to benefit students. The importance of cultural competency in health care is widely recognized due to increasingly diverse patient populations. Medical schools integrate cultural competency in curricula to train students to be culturally competent. Therefore, this topic was chosen for the Wikipedia Project. It is hoped that health sciences librarians and educators will benefit from their experience
[[alternative]]On Lin Tai-yu: Red Chamber Dream and the Fairytales of goddesses
No full text[[abstract]]This paper attempts to explore the relationships between Lin Tai-yu, the heroine of Red Chamber Dream, and the goddesses in Chinese fairytales and folk stories since the earliest days. We want to prove that Tai-yu is a model character reflecting the true, the good and the beautiful of life. Moreover, the research finds that the narrative and lyric traditions are joined together in Red Chamber Dream.
We would make the discussion from three aspects:
l. The myths of "yao-grass" (a fabulous plant of fairyland) and the goddess of Mountain Wu: Lin Tai-yu, dying unmarried, maintains an image of virgin, a pure young lady, forever.
2. The delicate and touching young goddess in the Mountain Spirit of the Nine Songs and the tender and graceful goddess of Mountain Ku-yeh in Chuang-Tzu: Tai-yu, simple and pure, is fallen in Iove desperately and suffered bitterly.
3. The Prince and the Lady of the Hsiang River in the Nine Songs: love is a process of eternal search and pursuit; so Chia Pao-yu and Lin Tai-yu cannot unite in marriage and there is no happy ending in Red Chamber Dream.[[fileno]]JA01_2001_p10
