The survey results of the development of Pe̍ h-ōe-jī indicate that the development of Pe̍ h-ōe-jī in Taiwan has two major contexts. The first is that starting from 1865, the preachers of the Presbyterian Church of England led a stable Pe̍ h-ōe-jī Movement, in which the development had extended from the Japanese colonial period until 1969, when the KMT government imposed a ban on the Movement. The second context began in the 1920s, when Taiwan was under Japanese rule; the Pe̍ h-ōe-jī Movement started to resonate with the Cultural Enlightenment Movement in Taiwan, which was continued in the 1950s by parliamentarians of the Taiwan Provincial Council. However, the Movement became silent after the government enforced its national language policy. It was not until the lifting of martial law in the 1980s when the Pe̍ h-ōe-jī Movement experienced a revival in Taiwan society. These two contexts demonstrate the changes in the development of Pe̍ h-ōe-jī in Taiwan: (1) Promoters: The leaders have changed from being Western missionaries in Taiwan to being local intellectuals. (2) Target Audience: Users have expanded from the believers of the Presbyterian Church to the Taiwan public. (3) Purpose: The aim of the Movement has changed from spreading Christianity to popularizing knowledge to facilitating social education. (4) Identification Orientation: The identification with the Christian faith has changed to the development of Taiwan national identity. The process of these changes shows the marks of localization of an orthography in Taiwan that has started from the creation and use of the Pe̍ h-ōe-jī Writing System in church activities by Western missionaries. Beginning with the first publication of Taiwan Prefectural City Church News in 1885, the Presbyterian Church in Taiwan had already initiated the age of using Pe̍ h-ōe-jī to read, write, publish, and communicate until 1969. The Pe̍ h-ōe-jī Writing System, under the Presbyterian Church’s promotion, had established a solid common language within Christian communities. The Age of Pe̍ h-ōe-jī in Taiwan, from 1885 to 1969, saw nearly a thousand books and other documents published in Pe̍ h-ōe-jī, covering the fields of literature, arts, religion, history, culture, childrenʹs education, and medicine, among others. These achievements indicate that the Pe̍ h-ōe-jī Writing System had been sound and mature and reflected in many fields of knowledge. At that time, the Pe̍ h-ōe-jī Writing System was not only a critical tool for church followers to receive and accept Christianity, but also an important approach for Taiwanese to acquire a variety of modern knowledge. Another focus of this thesis is to point out the concept of the “Pe̍ h-ōe-jī Writing Diffusional Sphere.” Viewing the routes of the spread of Pe̍ h-ōe-jī starting in the nineteenth century, the diffusion took place from Malacca (1820s) of Southeast Asia to Amoy (1850s) in China, before finally arriving in Taiwan (1865). According to the course of history, Taiwan is located at the end of the diffusion circle of Pe̍ h-ōe-jī. However, after more than a century of development, the Pe̍ h-ōe-jī of Hokkien and the Minnan dialects was unstable and unexpansive, resulting from both objective and subjective factors, including political situations, ethnic structures, language loss or obsolescence, religions, and so on, of Chinese in Southeast Asia and of Minnan people in China. Comparatively, with the achievement of the language movement after the 1980s, Taiwan has acquired advantage and dominance in the diffusion of Pe̍ h-ōe-jī and has gradually grown into the center for sourcing Pe̍ h-ōe-jī knowledge for the people of Singapore, Malaysia, and the Southern Min of China. In other words, Taiwan has gradually developed itself into the center of “Pe̍ h-ōe-jī Writing Diffusional Sphere” from the end of a diffusion course.
