Chaoshan

The extant scholarship on Sinophone Thai literature attributes the uniqueness of such works as Stormy Yaowarat Road to three aspects of their evocation of Teochew: their use of the Chaoyang-Swatow (Chaoshan) dialect of Teochew (particularly in the spoken dialogues of the text), their depiction of specific Teochew cultural practices like the regions' unique opera (ngiu) and tea ceremony (gongfu cha), and their emphasis on Teochew cultural and linguistic cultivation and preservation-an emphasis woven into the theme of the narratives.

2015, Brian C. Bernards, Writing the South Seas: Imagining the Nanyang in Chinese and Southeast Asian Postcolonial Literature, University of Washington Press, →ISBN, →LCCN, →OCLC, page 180:

The first season of this culinary series explores the history and ingredients of food from Chaoshan, a coastal region in the eastern Guangdong province of China, with dazzling, mouthwatering visuals.

2019 February 11, Sara Aridi, “What’s on TV Monday: ‘Hale County This Morning, This Evening’ and ‘White Dragon’”, in The New York Times, →ISSN, →OCLC, archived from the original on 2019-02-11, What to Watch:

A region in eastern Guangdong, China, home of the Teochew people. Historically composed of 8 counties belonging to the department of Chaozhou (潮州府), today it is equivalent to the 3 cities of Chaozhou, Shantou, and Jieyang.

Gascony

From Old French Gascoigne, from Medieval Latin Gasconia, from Vulgar Latin Wasconia, from Latin Vasconia, from Vascones + -ia, from Ancient Greek Οὐασκώνων (Ouaskṓnōn) attested in Strabo's 1st-century Geographica, Book III, variously derived from αἴξ (aíx, “goat”) (literally “he-goat people”) or a variant of Ausci (perhaps related to Euskara). Cognate with Basque, Gascon, and Vascon. Equivalent to Gascon + -y.
For sound changes: /w/ → /v/ occurred in the change from Latin to Proto-Romance, while /w/ → /g/ (in loan words starting with /w/) common in (non-Iberian) Romance languages, notably French; compare warranty and guarantee, William and Guillaume. By contrast, /v/ developed into /b/ and /β̞/ in Spanish and Gascon (Spanish Vasco, /ˈbasko/), hence the divergence.

YRD

A comparison between the PRD and the YRD shows big similarities, with one city being the clear leader in both cases, although this is not without problems. For Hong Kong serious challenges come from Guangzhou and Shenzhen, while for Shanghai, Hangzhou and Nanjing are competing, but also the famous cities Wuxi and Suzhou in between Nanjing and Shanghai are important competitors. However, Nanjing also wants to be an independent regional capital, while at the same time Nanjing is becoming more and more part of the YRD and faces competition and complementarity with Shanghai and the cities emerging between Nanjing and Shanghai.

2006, Meine Pieter van Dijk, “Competition Based on Successful Urban Management: Pearl River Delta Versus the Yangtze River Delta”, in Managing Cities in Developing Countries: The Theory and Practice of Urban Management, Edward Elgar Publishing, →ISBN, →OCLC, page 183:

Hangzhou is part of the Yangtze River Delta (YRD), an engine of growth during China’s boom years but now the source of a third of non-performing loans in the country.[…]
Steel and textile manufacturers in Xiaoshan, like other private firms around the YRD, sought to overcome such obstacles by providing loan guarantees for each other to gain bank credit.

2014 April 27, Gabriel Wildau, Koh Gui Qing, Shanghai Newsroom, “In wealthy Chinese city, debt guarantees spark default contagion”, in John Mair, editor, Reuters, archived from the original on 2023-04-22, Business News:

Economic transition and upgrading is directly related to the characteristics of national development strategy. Therefore, to promote economic transition and upgrading effectively, to avoid falling into the middle-income trap, and to switch the driving force of development successfully, the Yangtze River Delta (YRD) region must change its development strategy from the “late-developing advantage” one into a “first mover advantage” one.[…]Under the condition of insufficient investment, high administrative barriers, and inadequate globalization of service industry, the YRD region should pay as much attention to the development of the service industry as it did in the industrialization before to take lead in changing the development mode of service industry.

2015, Zhibiao Liu, “Development Strategy, Restructuring and Upgrading, Innovation-Driven Development and Transformation of the Development Mode of Service Industry”, in Zhibiao Liu, Xiaochun Li, editors, Transition of the Yangtze River Delta: From Global Manufacturing Center to Global Innovation Center (New Frontiers in Regional Science: Asian Perspectives), volume 5, Springer, →DOI, →ISBN, →ISSN, →LCCN, →OCLC, page 1:

Governments in the Yangtze River Delta (YRD) have promised to give market forces free rein in building infrastructure and creating unified public service platforms as the mainland’s most affluent region seeks to develop in synergy under Beijing’s directions.
Authorities in Shanghai and the provinces of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui – which together make up the YRD area – are inviting construction companies, institutional investors, research institutes and consultancies to play a dominant role in developing the so-called demonstration zone, essentially a pilot zone that forms a key part of the YRD integration initiative.
