Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Map of the degree to which Middle Chinese affricates and velars in palatal environments have merged as a palatal series in local Chinese dialects in the core Chinese-speaking area, reflecting fieldwork conducted between December 2002 and December 2006. |

Darker shades denote more merging, while the lightest shades denote none (or hardly any). The corresponding map of the Atlas uses a precise quantification devised for that map: 96–100% separate, 0–4% merged
91–95% separate, 5–9% merged
86–90% separate, 10–14% merged
81–85% separate, 15–19% merged
76–80% separate, 20–24% merged
71–75% separate, 25–29% merged
66–70% separate, 30–34% merged
61–65% separate, 35–39% merged
56–60% separate, 40–44% merged
51–55% separate, 45–49% merged
46–50% separate, 50–54% merged
41–45% separate, 55–59% merged
36–40% separate, 60–64% merged
31–35% separate, 65–69% merged
25–30% separate, 70–75% merged
For example, in the Beijing dialect, 23 of 35 sample characters with affricate initials and 38 of 44 sample characters with velar initials (all in palatal environments) have merged as palatals (j, q and x in pinyin). From these figures, the merger percentage is calculated as (23*38)/(35*44) = 57%. Subtracting this from 100% yields a separation percentage of 43%. |
