Min-Bei or Northern Min (simplified Chinese: 闽北; traditional Chinese: 閩北; pinyin: Mǐnběi) is a collection of dialects of Min spoken in Nanping Prefecture of northwestern Fujian which apart from Shao-Jiang Min are mutually intelligible.The Chinese languages of Fujian province were traditionally divided into Min-Bei (Northern) and Min-Nan (Southern). However dialectologists now divide Min more finely.
