Classification and Dialects
There are no dialects.

Tonality
The tonal system is the same as that of Mandarin: there are four tones (a flat tone, a high rising tone, a high tone, and a low tone.) This leads to homophones, that are distinguishable only by tone, such as:
 * we (IPA /wɛ̄/) meaning 'that'
 * wé (IPA /wɛ́/) meaning 'chicken'
 * wè (IPA /wɛ̀/) meaning 'slow'
 * wě (IPA /wɛ̌/) meaning 'creek or small river'
