臺語當中有對句、歇後語等趣味的形式,讀來有節奏音律之美,也常見於唸歌、歌仔戲、布袋戲等民間藝術,取材於生活,是你我身邊最熟悉的話語,也是珍貴的文化資產。簡短的話語生動有趣,卻又蘊含先人的生活智慧,有著深長意義且極富哲理,在代代相傳的同時,也傳遞了人生價值觀。

桃園的閩南人口超過百萬,常民慣用的母語是我們寶貴的文化資產。由於臺語向下紮根的工作刻不容緩,因此將常見的內容,以生動有趣的繪本方式呈現,是學習的良師益友,適合各年齡層觀看使用;除了刊物出版以外,並將繪本內容建置網站供民眾下載,提供民眾更多面向使用。結合紙本繪本及網路影音數位資源,希冀活化臺語的深厚文化,我們一起用日常在地的語言交流彼此,共感生活。

There are fascinating forms of the Minnan language like couplets and two-part allegorical sayings. In reading, they demonstrate the beauty of rhythm and temperament. They are also commonly seen in folk arts like song chanting, Taiwanese opera, and puppet show. These are the words derived from life, dear to the ears of yours and mine, that constitute precious cultural heritage. Those words are presented in short, witty, fun sentences rich in ancestors’ life wisdom, meaningful and philosophical. Priceless values of life are passed down along with these words from generation to generation.

The Minnan population in Taoyuan exceeds one million while the mother tongues spoken by our commoners are our valuable cultural heritage. Now that it is essential for us to facilitate the Minnan language in taking root, the contents commonly seen are thus presented in a lively, interesting picture book. This book is our best companion on the journey of Taiwanese learning, perfect for readers in all ages. In addition to the publication in hardcopy, the content of the picture book is available online for the public to download for multiple applications. With the picture book in hardcopy and the digital resources of audio/video online combined, we endeavor to revitalize the profound culture of the Minnan language. Let us exchange with each other in the everyday local tongue and savor life together.
