Hainanese (海南話) or Qiongwen (琼文) is a variant of the Min Nan group of Chinese spoken in the southern Chinese island province of Hainan. Hainanese can sometimes mean the language of the Li people living in the southern coast of Hainan but Hainanese generally means the spoken language of the Han Chinese in Hainan. Hainanese is mutually intelligible with neither Hokkien, Teochew, Taiwanese nor any other variants of the Min Nan dialects.
