Gui–Liu Mandarin (simplified Chinese: 桂柳官话; traditional Chinese: 桂柳官話) is a group of Southwestern Mandarin varieties spoken predominantly in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. It is named after the cities of Guilin and Liuzhou, two main cities in the northeast of the province. The second edition of the The Language Atlas of China divides the group into three subbranches, namely Xiangnan (Chinese: 湘南小片), Guibei (Chinese: 桂北小片), and Qiannan (Chinese: 黔南小片), of which Guibei is spoken in the highest number of counties.^[1]
