%X In modern times, many scholars have studied the origin of Tianjin dialect and its relationship with Guzhen dialect in Anhui Province. However, through reading literature, it can be seen that the research on the neutral tone of Guzhen dialect has not been carried out. Therefore, based on previous studies, this paper intends to summarize the distribution of the neutral tone in Guzhen dialect through field and online surveys, recording and sorting out the results, and investigate the pitch value of the neutral tone through phonetic experiments. It is hoping to provide materials for the dialect investigation and to fill in the gaps in the relevant research field.
