The first explanation:

In the eighth year of Emperor Kangxi of Qing Dynasty, the top water village was changed to Shantou flood. Shantou was originally named Shantou. Because there is a thin layer of iron fence for fishing on the sand embankment in the Hanjiang Delta, the iron fence was called Shantou in ancient times, so it was named Shashantou. Hereinafter referred to as Shantou.

The second explanation:

Shantou was originally a fishing village on the seashore of Jieyang (later living in Chenghai). In the Yuan Dynasty, a large fishing village called "Xia Ling" was formed in the present photochemical department. By the ninth year of Jiajing (A.D. 1530), a sand ridge had been formed from Malao Palace in Waimaling to Qilu, which was called "sand mountain". In the third year of Wanli (1575), sand ridges piled up into pieces, which was called "Shashanping". In the fifty-sixth year of Emperor Kangxi of Qing Dynasty (17 17), a battery and a smoke pier were built at the current site of Shantou Sub-branch of Waimalu People's Bank, which was called "Shashantou". Later, the Qing Dynasty set up a station here to collect salt tax, referred to as "Shantou". In the fourth year of Jiaqing (1809), it was called "Shashantou Port" because more and more merchant ships docked. Before the opening of the port, the "Juck Zhang Guild Hall" had been established, and business activities were increasingly active, which had taken shape as a commercial port.

The third explanation:

Shantou is located in Nanhai coastal city of China. There are mountains and water, hence the name Shantou. As a result, where there is Shantou, there is Shanwei.

What does it mean in Chaoshan dialect?

This is Cantonese! See the meaning!

What does the Chaoshan dialect mean by scraping the ground?

Fengshun people are indeed hipsters, which is not wrong; This is related to historical reasons, but it is not wrong that Fengshun is mostly Hakka, and the two statements are not contradictory. Has anyone ever said that Hakkas are not hipsters?

All land originally belonging to Chaozhou government should be regarded as hipsters. Chaozhou people's concept is now accepted by most people in its historical scope, that is to say, chaozhou people is not equal to "chaozhou people", and Fengshun people are called Chaozhou Hakkas, not Chaoshan Hakkas, which shows that Chaozhou and Chaoshan are also different, with "chaozhou people"-chaozhou people is now generally called "Chaoshan people". Chaoshan people generally refer to people who speak Chaozhou dialect in China, not those who speak Chaoshan dialect overseas in the coastal areas of eastern Guangdong; Hakka speakers in Chaoshan area may be chaozhou people or chaozhou people, but not necessarily Chaoshan people.

In other words, people in Chaozhou, Jieyang, Shantou and Shanwei that we mainlanders are used to are Chaoshan people, but overseas, Shanwei people will not be recognized as "hipsters". On the contrary, Meizhou people are recognized as hipsters, especially Fengshun people and Tai Po people. In Fengshun, it is the hipsters who speak Hakka, and in Shanwei, it is not the hipsters who speak Chaozhou dialect, which is a recognized fact in overseas Chinese circles.

At present, the Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese in Ren Chao, Guangdong Province usually takes Fengshun as a member, but it denies Shanwei as a member, which is proof. In the past, Fengshun people (Hakkas) in Chaozhou did not join overseas Hakkas' associations, but joined many Hakkas' associations. In recent years, due to the administrative division of China, some Hakkas in Fengshun and Tai Po have joined together to form an independent group called "Li Qiao (Hakka: Kyolam)", which neither joins the Hakkas' association nor the Hakkas' (Jiaying) association. However, there are still Fengshun expatriates who are willing to stay in Chaoshe, such as Thaksin Shinawatra, the current prime minister of Thailand. He is a Hakka in Fengshun, but he also says that he is a hipster.

Finally, Fengshun people are really not Chaoshan people. This sentence needs to be emphasized. Even people who speak Chaozhou dialect in Fengshun should not be regarded as Chaoshan people, because "Chaoshan people" is a problem involving current administrative divisions. Fengshun belongs to Meizhou area, not Chaoshan area. This is a fact. Some people in Fengshun can only speak Chaozhou dialect, but they can't speak Hakka at all. These people are definitely not Hakkas. This is a language problem, but they are not Chaoshan people. They can only say that they are from Meizhou or local chaozhou people. In fact, it is better to say "chaozhou people" than simply "chaozhou people", because the Hakka people in Fengshun are also chaozhou people, but these people are: Fengshun speaks Chaozhou dialect.

Shantou Shanwei, what does this Shantou mean? What do the head and tail seem to be?

Hello, landlord.

The meaning of Shantou literally means that there are mountains and waters.

Other literal meanings are:

Shantou, fish are swimming in the water. From the water, the sound of mountains. -"Shuo Wen"

Fresh fish are produced in the south, and fish swim with the current. -"Poem Xiao Ya South Tour Jiayu"

Another example: Shantou (the way fish swim)

Fishing in a fish cage [fishintrap] For example, cover a mountain (catch it in a fish cage).

Wash [wash]. Such as: Shantou and Shantou (repeated washing)

cheat

Make a trap and come to Shantou to find you. -"Biography of Heroes of Children"

But Shantou and Shanwei don't really have the meaning of beginning and ending as their names suggest.

When I first saw the name "Shanwei", people often thought that it was geographically separated from Shantou, but it was not. In Hailufeng area, many places are named after "X tail". Shanwei Port became a commercial port as early as the early Song Dynasty. It used to be a gathering place for ships, and it was called "Little Tokyo" in the 1920s. Shanwei has beautiful mountains and beautiful scenery, and the nature is ingenious. Ancestors have created splendid civilizations, forming a variety of "gods, seas, sands and rocks", distinctive "lakes, islands, bays and headlands", different "peaks, springs, rocks and caves" and historical sites. Shanwei is one of the "four big fishing grounds" in China and one of the "four big shell carving sites" in China.
