Project Summary: This initiative focuses on the dual empowerment of Jiangxi dialect (represented by Gan language) preservation and rural revitalization. Addressing core challenges of Gan language such as "significant county-level disparities, fragmented preservation efforts, and weak industrial integration," we innovatively propose a "county-focused Gan language database + industrial dual empowerment" solution. Through questionnaire surveys (covering key demographics aged 13-25, with 180 valid responses collected), literature review, and case analysis, we demonstrate the current status of Gan language preservation: younger generations exhibit lower dialect usage frequency, with only 17.86% of 13-18-year-olds "frequently using" it compared to 31.91% among 19-25-year-olds, showing a clear decline in dialect usage frequency across younger age groups. Regarding dialect usage, "fear of others not understanding" (45%) and "long-term living away from hometown" (36.25%) are primary constraints. Surveys also reveal a positive correlation between family dialect usage frequency and learning willingness. Consequently, we designed a "phonetic-text-cultural annotation" county-level dialect database with regional shared sub-databases, outlining application pathways in academic, educational, cultural-tourism, and economic sectors. Simultaneously, we established a "dialect preservation ? industrial empowerment ? feedback to preservation" logic, providing theoretical and practical value for mutual reinforcement between dialect protection and rural revitalization.
