I am trying to tape my prayer texts in "standard" Hokkien. Which one is it? Is it the Hokkien spoken in Amoy, China? Is Swatow a different dialect altogether?

Re: Philippine Hokkien
It's me once again. I have solved my previous problem. I found several Philippine Hokkien speakers who could read the texts.

Re: Philippine Hokkien
I also have a copy of the facsimile of the first book published in the Philippines (16th century), printed in Chinese, containing Catholic prayers. I am curious if it can be read today as it was then. A Chinese teacher once told me it seems like it was in the "Swatow" dialect or language. ...
