AB - Min(閩) dialect has the syllable structure of double ending that does not share with the other Chinese dialects. Double ending means that both a high vowel and a consonant follow a main vowel such as [-eiŋ, -ieiŋ, -ueiŋ, -yeiŋ, -aiŋ, -uaiŋ, -øyŋ, -ouŋ, -ɔiŋ, -uiŋ, -yiŋ] and [-eiʔ, -aiʔ, -øyʔ, -ouʔ, -uiʔ]. This kind of syllable structure has highly developed in Northern Min dialect and Eastern Min dialect.
The syllable structure of double ending does not exist in Middle Chinese that retains the typical syllable structure of ‘CV1V2V3E’(V3 represents the main vowel here). We can not find the double ending at the Qilinbayin(戚林八音), which reflects the Fuzhou(福州) dialect of the 16th century. It occurs at The Alphabetic Dictionary in the Foochow Dialect(1870), which reflects the Fuzhou(福州) dialect of the 19th century. Therefore, we can say that the double ending of Min dialect appeared between the 16th century and the 19th century. The double ending, however, is gradually disappearing because it undergoes nasalization, dentalization and ommission of abrupt tone.
