'''Aksara Sunda''' adalah salah satu [[aksara]] tradisional Indonesia yang berkembang di pulau [[pulau Jawa|Jawa]]. Aksara ini terutama digunakan untuk menulis bahasa [[bahasa Sunda|Sunda]], tetapi dalam perkembangannya juga digunakan untuk menulis beberapa bahasa daerah lainnya seperti bahasa [[Bahasa Kawi|Kawi]], [[bahasa Cirebon|Jawa Cirebon]] dan [[bahasa Arab|Arab]]. Aksara Sunda merupakan turunan dari [[aksara Brahmi]] India melalui perantara [[aksara Kawi]] dan berkerabat dekat dengan [[aksara Jawa]]. Aksara Sunda aktif digunakan dalam sastra maupun tulisan sehari-hari masyarakat Sunda sejak abad ke-14 hingga akhir abad ke-18 sebelum fungsinya berangsur-angsur tergantikan dengan [[aksara Jawa]] dan [[Alfabet Latin|Latin]]. Aksara ini masih diajarkan di [[Jawa Barat]] dan [[Banten]]<ref>{{Cite web|last=Kompasiana.com|date=2022-01-28|title=Aksara Sunda dan Keberaksaraan Masyarakat Sunda|url=https://www.kompasiana.com/isursuryati3843/61f3a18e06310e7a8950ba73/aksara-sunda-dan-keberaksaraan-masyarakat-sunda|website=KOMPASIANA|language=id|access-date=2022-05-28}}</ref> sebagai bagian dari muatan lokal, tetapi dengan penerapan yang terbatas dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. |

Aksara Sunda adalah sistem tulisan [[abugida]] yang terdiri dari 19 aksara dasar. Seperti aksara [[Rumpun_aksara_Brahmi|Brahmi]] lainnya, setiap konsonan merepresentasikan satu suku kata dengan vokal inheren /a/ yang dapat diubah dengan pemberian diakritik tertentu. Arah penulisan aksara Sunda adalah kiri ke kanan. Secara tradisional aksara ini ditulis tanpa spasi antarkata (''[[scriptio continua]]''). |

[[Austronesian languages|Austronesian]]-speaking ancestors of [[Taiwanese indigenous peoples]] settled the [[Geography of Taiwan|island]] around 6,000 years ago. In the 17th century, large-scale [[Han people|Han Chinese]] immigration to western Taiwan began under a [[Dutch Formosa|Dutch colony]] and continued under the [[Kingdom of Tungning]]. The island was [[Taiwan under Qing rule|annexed in 1683]] by the [[Qing dynasty]] of China, and [[Treaty of Shimonoseki|ceded]] to the [[Empire of Japan]] in 1895. The [[Republic of China (1912–1949)|Republic of China]], which had [[Xinhai Revolution|overthrown the Qing in 1911]], took control of Taiwan on behalf of the [[World War II Allies]] following the [[surrender of Japan]] in 1945. The resumption of the [[Chinese Civil War]] resulted in the ROC's loss of [[mainland China]] to forces of the [[Chinese Communist Party]] (CCP) and [[Republic of China retreat to Taiwan|retreat to Taiwan]] in 1949. Its effective jurisdiction has since been limited to [[free area of the Republic of China|Taiwan and numerous smaller islands]]. |

In the early 1960s, Taiwan entered a period of rapid economic growth and industrialisation called the "[[Taiwan Miracle]]". In the late 1980s and early 1990s, the ROC transitioned from a [[One-party state|one-party]] military dictatorship to a [[multi-party democracy]] with a [[semi-presidential system]]. Taiwan's export-oriented industrial economy is the [[list of countries by GDP (nominal)|21st-largest]] in the world by nominal GDP, and [[List of countries by GDP (PPP)|20th-largest]] by PPP measures, with major contributions from steel, machinery, electronics and chemicals manufacturing.

In the early 17th century, the [[Dutch East India Company]] established a commercial post at [[Fort Zeelandia (Taiwan)|Fort Zeelandia]] (modern-day [[Anping District|Anping]], [[Tainan]]) on a coastal sandbar called "Tayouan",{{sfnp|Valentijn|1903|p=52}} after their [[ethnonym]] for a nearby [[Taiwanese indigenous peoples|Taiwanese aboriginal]] tribe, possibly [[Taivoan people]], written by the Dutch and Portuguese variously as ''Taiouwang'', ''Tayowan'', ''Teijoan'', etc.<ref name="Mair">{{cite web |last=Mair |first=V. H. |author-link=Victor H. Mair |year=2003 |title=How to Forget Your Mother Tongue and Remember Your National Language |url=http://pinyin.info/readings/mair/taiwanese.html |quote=The true derivation of the name "Taiwan" is actually from the ethnonym of a tribe in the southwest part of the island in the area around Ping'an. As early as 1636, a Dutch missionary referred to this group as Taiouwang. From the name of the tribe, the Portuguese called the area around Ping'an as Tayowan, Taiyowan, Tyovon, Teijoan, Toyouan, and so forth. Indeed, already in his ship's log of 1622, the Dutchman Cornelis Reijersen referred to the area as Teijoan and Taiyowan. }}</ref> This name was also adopted into the Chinese vernacular (in particular, [[Hokkien]], as {{zh|poj={{linktext|Tāi-oân}}/{{linktext|Tâi-oân}}}}) as the name of the sandbar and nearby area (Tainan). The modern word "Taiwan" is derived from this usage, which is written in different transliterations ({{lang|zh-hant|{{linktext|大員}}, {{linktext|大圓}}, {{linktext|大灣}}, {{linktext|臺員}}, {{linktext|臺圓}}}} and {{lang|zh-hant|{{linktext|臺窩灣}}}}) in Chinese historical records. The area occupied by modern-day Tainan was the first permanent settlement by both European colonists and Chinese immigrants. The settlement grew to be the island's most important trading centre and served as its capital until 1887. |

Through its rapid development the entire Formosan mainland eventually became known as "Taiwan".<ref name="蔡玉仙等編">{{cite book |script-title=zh:府城文史 | editor=蔡玉仙 |display-editors=etal |year=2007 |publisher=[[Tainan City Government]] |language=zh |isbn=978-986-00-9434-3}}</ref><ref name="石守謙主編">{{cite book |editor=Shih Shou-chien |editor-link=Shih Shou-chien |year=2003 |trans-title = Ilha Formosa: the Emergence of Taiwan on the World Scene in the 17th Century |script-title=zh:福爾摩沙 : 十七世紀的臺灣、荷蘭與東亞 |language=zh |publisher = National Palace Museum |place=Taipei |isbn=978-957-562-441-5}}</ref><ref>{{cite book |last=Kato |first=Mitsutaka |orig-year=1940 |year=2007 |script-title =zh:昨日府城 明星台南: 發現日治下的老臺南 |language=zh |translator=黃秉珩 |publisher=臺南市文化資產保護協會 |isbn=978-957-28079-9-6}}</ref><ref name="Oosterhoff">{{cite book |title=Colonial Cities: Essays on Urbanism in a Colonial Context |editor1-first=Robert |editor1-last=Ross |editor2-first=Gerard J. |editor2-last=Telkamp |chapter=Zeelandia, a Dutch colonial city on Formosa (1624–1662) |first=J.L. |last=Oosterhoff |pages=51–62 |publisher=Springer |year=1985 |isbn=978-90-247-2635-6}}</ref> |

Elsewhere, the name was used for the [[Ryukyu Islands]] in general or [[Okinawa]], the largest of them; indeed the name ''Ryūkyū'' is the Japanese form of ''Liúqiú''. The name also appears in the ''[[Book of Sui]]'' (636) and other early works, but scholars cannot agree on whether these references are to the Ryukyus, Taiwan or even [[Luzon]].{{sfnp|Thompson|1964|p=163}} |

The official name of the country in English is the "Republic of China"; it has also been known under various names throughout its existence. Shortly after the ROC's establishment in 1912, while it was still located on the Chinese mainland, the government used the short form "China" (''{{lang|zh-Latn-TW|Zhōngguó}}'' ({{nowrap|{{lang|zh-Hant-TW|{{linktext|中國}}}}}})) to refer to itself, which derives from ''{{lang|zh-latn-pinyin|zhōng}}'' ("central" or "middle") and ''{{lang|zh-latn-pinyin|guó}}'' ("state, nation-state"),{{efn|Although this is the present meaning of ''{{lang|zh-latn-pinyin|guó}}'', in [[Old Chinese]] (when its pronunciation was something like {{nowrap|/*qʷˤək/}})<ref name=bs>[[Reconstructions of Old Chinese|Baxter-Sagart]].</ref> it meant the walled city of the Chinese and the areas they could control from them.<ref name=wilx/>}} a term which also developed under the [[Zhou dynasty]] in reference to its [[demesne|royal demesne]],{{efn|Its use is attested from the 6th-century [[Classic of History]], which states "[[Tian (god)|Huangtian]] bestowed the lands and the peoples of the central state to the ancestors" ({{lang|zh|皇天既付中國民越厥疆土于先王}}).<ref>{{lang|zh|[[:s:zh:尚書|《尚書》]], [[:s:zh:尚書/梓材|梓材]].}} {{in lang|zh}}</ref>}} and the name was then applied to the area around [[Luoyi]] (present-day Luoyang) during the [[Eastern Zhou]] and then to China's [[Central Plain (China)|Central Plain]] before being used as an occasional synonym for the state during the [[Qing dynasty|Qing era]].<ref name=wilx>{{citation |last=Wilkinson |first=Endymion |title=Chinese History: A Manual |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=ERnrQq0bsPYC |year=2000 |location=Cambridge |publisher=Harvard University Asia Center |series=Harvard-Yenching Institute Monograph No. 52 |page=[https://books.google.com/books?id=ERnrQq0bsPYC&pg=PA132 132] |isbn=978-0-674-00249-4 }}</ref> |

Vokal inheren dari tiap aksara dasar dapat dimatikan dengan penggunaan diaktrik ''pangkon''. Akan tetapi, ''pangkon'' normalnya tidak digunakan di tengah kata atau kalimat, sehingga untuk menuliskan suku kata tertutup di tengah kata dan kalimat, digunakanlah bentuk ''pasangan'' (ꦥꦱꦔꦤ꧀). Berbeda dengan ''pangkon'', ''pasangan'' tidak hanya mematikan konsonan yang diiringinya tetapi juga menunjukkan konsonan selanjutnya. Sebagai contoh, aksara ''ma'' (ꦩ) yang diiringi bentuk ''pasangan'' dari ''pa'' (꧀ꦥ) menjadi ''mpa'' (ꦩ꧀ꦥ). Bentuk ''pasangan'' setiap aksara ada di tabel berikut:{{sfn|Everson|2008|pp=2}} |

During the 1950s and 1960s, after the ROC government had withdrawn to Taiwan upon losing the [[Chinese Civil War]], it was commonly referred to as "Nationalist China" (or "[[Free area of the Republic of China|Free China]]") to differentiate it from "Communist China" (or "[[China|Red China]]").<ref>{{Cite book|last=Garver|first=John W. |title=The Sino-American Alliance: Nationalist China and American Cold War Strategy in Asia|publisher=M.E.

In some contexts, including ROC government publications, the name is written as "Republic of China (Taiwan)", "Republic of China/Taiwan", or sometimes "Taiwan (ROC)".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://english.president.gov.tw/|title=Office of President of the Republic of China (Taiwan)|access-date=15 July 2015}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.taiwan.gov.tw/about.php|title=Government Portal of the Republic of China (Taiwan)|access-date=16 June 2020}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |title=President Tsai interviewed by BBC |url=https://english.president.gov.tw/News/5962 |access-date=16 June 2020 |work=Office of the President of the Republic of China (Taiwan) |date=18 January 2020 |quote=Well, the idea is that we don't have a need to declare ourselves an independent state.

=== Angka === |

Aksara Sunda memiliki lambang bilangannya sendiri yang berlaku selayaknya [[angka Arab]], tetapi sebagian bentuknya memiliki rupa yang persis sama dengan beberapa aksara Sunda, semisal angka 1 ꧑ dengan aksara ''wyanjana'' ga ꦒ, atau angka 8 ꧘ dengan aksara ''murda'' pa ꦦ. Karena persamaan bentuk ini, angka yang digunakan di tengah kalimat perlu diapit dengan tanda baca ''pada pangkat'' atau ''pada lingsa'' untuk memperjelas fungsinya sebagai lambang bilangan. Semisal, "tanggal 17 Juni" ditulis ꦠꦁꦒꦭ꧀꧇꧑꧗꧇ꦗꦸꦤꦶ atau ꦠꦁꦒꦭ꧀꧈꧑꧗꧈ꦗꦸꦤꦶ. Pengapit ini dapat diabaikan apabila fungsi lambang bilangan sudah jelas dari konteks, misal nomor halaman di pojok kertas. Bentuknya dapat dilihat sebagaimana berikut:{{sfn|Everson|2008|pp=4}}{{sfn|Darusuprapta|2002|pp=44-45}} |

Dalam pengajaran modern, tanda baca yang paling sering digunakan adalah ''pada adeg-adeg'', ''pada lingsa'', dan ''pada lungsi'', yang masing-masing berfungsi untuk membuka paragraf (sebagaimana [[pillcrow|''pillcrow'']]), memisahkan kalimat (sebagaimana [[koma (tanda baca)|koma]]), dan mengakhiri kalimat (sebagaimana [[tanda titik|titik]]). ''Pada adeg'' dan ''pada pisèlèh'' umumnya digunakan untuk mengapit sisipan di tengah teks seperti [[tanda kurung|kurung]] atau [[tanda petik|petik]], sementara ''pada pangkat'' berfungsi seperti [[titik dua]]. ''Pada rangkap'' kadang digunakan sebagai [[iteration mark|tanda pengulangan kata]] yang dalam bahasa Indonesia informal setara dengan penggunaan angka 2 untuk kata [[Reduplikasi|berulang]] (misal ''kata-kata'' ꦏꦠꦏꦠ → ''kata2'' ꦏꦠꧏ).{{sfn|Everson|2008|pp=4-5}} |
|||
Beberapa tanda baca tidak memiliki ekivalen dalam ejaan latin dan sering kali bersifat dekoratif, karena itu bentuk dan penggunaannya cenderung bervariasi antarpenulis, semisal ''rerenggan'' yang kadang digunakan untuk mengapit judul. Dalam surat-menyurat, seperangkat tanda baca digunakan di awal surat sebagai tanda pembuka dan kadang digunakan pula sebagai penanda status sosial dari sang pengirim surat; dari ''pada andhap'' yang rendah, ''pada madya'' yang menengah, hingga ''pada luhur'' yang tinggi. ''Pada guru'' kadang digunakan sebagai pilihan netral yang tidak memiliki konotasi sosial, sementara ''pada pancak'' digunakan untuk mengakhiri surat. Namun perlu diperhatikan bahwa bentuk dan fungsi ini merupakan kaidah yang digeneralisasi. Sebagaimana ''rerenggan'', tanda baca pemulai dan pengakhir surat dalam prakteknya bersifat dekoratif dan opsional, dengan beragam susunan bentuk yang bervariasi antara daerah dan juru tulis.{{sfn|Everson|2008|pp=4-5}} |

Ketika terjadi kesalahan dalam penulisan naskah, beberapa juru tulis keraton menggunakan tanda koreksi khusus alih-alih mencoret bagian yang salah: ''tirta tumétès'' yang ditemukan di naskah-naskah Yogyakarta, dan ''isèn-isèn'' yang ditemukan di naskah Surakarta. Tanda koreksi ini langsung dibubuhkan mengikuti bagian yang salah sebelum penulis melanjutkan dengan penulisan yang benar. Semisal seorang juru tulis ingin menulis ''pada luhur'' ꦥꦢꦭꦸꦲꦸꦂ namun terlanjur menulis ''pada hu'' ꦥꦢꦲꦸ sebelum ia sadar kesalahannya, maka kata ini dapat dikoreksi menjadi ''pada hu···luhur'' ꦥꦢꦲꦸ꧞꧞꧞ꦭꦸꦲꦸꦂ atau ꦥꦢꦲꦸ꧟꧟꧟ꦭꦸꦲꦸꦂ.{{sfn|Everson|2008|pp=5}} |

Perangkat tanda baca ''pepadan'' dapat dikenal dengan berbagai nama dalam teks-teks tradisional. Behrend (1996) membagi ''pepadan'' ke dalam dua kelompok umum: ''pada kecil'' yang merupakan tanda baca tunggal, serta ''pada besar'' yang sering kali disusun berderet dari beberapa tanda baca. ''Pada kecil'' digunakan untuk menandakan pergantian [[bait (sastra)|bait]] yang biasanya muncul setiap 32 hingga 48 suku kata tergantung [[metrum]] yang digunakan. ''Pada besar'' digunakan untuk menandakan pergantian [[tembang]] (diikuti pula oleh metrum, [[irama]], dan citra pelantunan) yang biasanya muncul tiap 5 hingga 10 halaman, meski hal ini sangat tergantung dari susunan naskah yang bersangkutan.{{sfn|Behrend|1996|pp=188}} Pedoman penulisan aksara Sunda sering kali membagi pada besar menjadi tiga jenis pada, ''purwa pada'' ꧅ ꦧ꧀ꦖ ꧅ yang digunakan di awal tembang pertama, ''madya pada'' ꧅ ꦟ꧀ꦢꦿ ꧅ yang digunakan di pergantian tembang, dan ''wasana pada'' ꧅ ꦆ ꧅ yang digunakan di penutup tembang terakhir.{{sfn|Everson|2008|pp=4-5}} Namun karena bentuknya yang sangat bervariasi antarnaskah, tiga tanda baca ini sering kali melebur dan dianggap satu dalam praktek penulisan sebagian besar naskah Sunda.{{sfn|Behrend|1996|pp=190}} |
|||
''Pepadan'' merupakan elemen aksara yang paling menonjol dalam naskah Sunda dan hampir selalu ditulis dengan kemampuan artisik tinggi yang meliputi kaligrafi, pewarnaan, hingga [[penyepuhan]] dengan [[kertas emas]].{{sfn|Behrend|1996|pp=189-190}} Dalam sejumlah naskah mewah, bentuk ''pepadan'' bahkan bisa menjadi petunjuk untuk tembang yang digunakan; ''pepadan'' dengan elemen sayap atau figur burung yang menyerupai gagak (''dhandhang'' dalam bahasa Sunda) merujuk pada tembang ''dhandhanggula'', sementara ''pepadan'' dengan elemen ikan mas merujuk pada tembang ''maskumambang'' (secara harfiah berarti "emas mengambang di air"). Salah satu pusat penulisan naskah dengan gubahan ''pepadan'' yang paling indah adalah [[skriptorium]] [[Kadipaten Pakualaman]] di Yogyakarta.{{sfn|Behrend|1996|pp=190}}<ref>{{cite book|title=Naskah-naskah Skriptorium Pakualaman|first=Sri Ratna|last=Saktimulya|publisher=Kepustakaan Populer Gramedia|place=Jakarta|year=2016|isbn=602424228X}}</ref> |

Untuk penulisan bahasa [[Sanskerta]] dan [[bahasa Kawi|Kawi]] yang memerlukan 33 aksara dasar, aksara Sunda dapat diurutkan berdasarkan [[fonologi|tempat pelafalannya]] (''warga'') menurut prinsip fonologi Sanskerta yang pertama kali dijabarkan oleh [[Pāṇini]].<ref name="mardikawi"/>{{sfn|Everson|2008|pp=5-6}} Deret ini, yang kadang disebut deret Kaganga berdasarkan tiga aksara pertamanya, merupakan deret standar dalam aksara-aksara turunan [[aksara Brahmi|Brahmi]] yang masih bisa digunakan untuk menulis bahasa Sanskerta, seperti aksara [[Devanagari|Dewanagari]], [[aksara Tamil|Tamil]], dan [[aksara Khmer|Khmer]]. |

In 1683, following the defeat of Koxinga's grandson by an armada led by Admiral [[Shi Lang]] of southern Fujian, the Qing dynasty formally annexed Taiwan, placing it under the jurisdiction of Fujian province. The Qing imperial government tried to reduce piracy and vagrancy in the area, issuing a series of edicts to manage immigration and respect aboriginal land rights. Immigrants mostly from southern Fujian continued to enter Taiwan. The border between taxpaying lands and what was considered "savage" lands shifted eastward, with some aborigines becoming [[sinicized]] while others retreated into the mountains. During this time, there were a number of conflicts between different ethnic groups of Han Chinese, Quanzhou Minnanese feuding with Zhangzhou and Hakkas peasants, and major clan fights between Minnans (Hoklos), Hakkas and aborigines too. |

There were more than a hundred rebellions, riots, and instances of civil strife during the Qing's administration, including the [[Lin Shuangwen rebellion]] (1786–1788). Their frequency was evoked by the common saying "every three years an uprising, every five years a rebellion" (三年一反、五年一亂), primarily in reference to the period between 1820 and 1850.<ref>{{Cite book | title = The Indigenous Dynamic in Taiwan's Postwar Development: The Religious and Historical Roots of Entrepreneurship | last = Skoggard | first = Ian A. | isbn =9781563248467 | ol=979742M | year = 1996 | publisher = M.E.

Northern Taiwan and the Penghu Islands were the scene of subsidiary campaigns in the [[Sino-French War]] (August 1884 to April 1885). The French occupied Keelung on 1 October 1884, but were [[Battle of Tamsui|repulsed from Tamsui]] a few days later. The French won some tactical victories but were unable to exploit them, and the [[Keelung Campaign]] ended in stalemate. The [[Pescadores campaign (1885)|Pescadores Campaign]], beginning on 31 March 1885, was a French victory, but had no long-term consequences. The French evacuated both Keelung and the Penghu archipelago after the end of the war. |

Kerabat paling dekat dari aksara Sunda adalah [[aksara Sunda]]. Sebagai keturunan langsung [[aksara Kawi]], aksara Sunda dan Sunda masih memiliki banyak kesamaan dari segi struktur dasar masing-masing huruf. Salah satu perbedaan mencolok antara aksara Sunda dan Sunda adalah sistem tata tulis; Tata tulis Sunda cenderung bersifat konservatif dan mempertahankan banyak aspek dari ejaan Kawi yang tidak lagi digunakan dalam aksara Sunda. Sebagai contoh, kata ''desa'' dalam aksara Sunda kini ditulis ꦢꦺꦱ. Dalam tata tulis Sunda kontemporer, ejaan ini dianggap sebagai ejaan kasar atau kurang tepat, karena ''desa'' merupakan kosakata serapan Sanskerta yang seharusnya dieja sesuai pengucapan Sanskerta aslinya: ''deśa'' ꦢꦺꦯ, menggunakan aksara sa ''murda'' alih-alih aksara sa ''nglegena''. Seperti bahasa Sunda, [[bahasa Sunda]] juga tidak lagi membedakan pelafalan seluruh aksara dalam deret Sanskerta-Kawi, termasuk antara sa ''nglegena'' dan sa ''murda'', tetapi ejaan asli selalu dipertahankan kapan pun memungkinkan. Salah satu alasannya agar sejumlah kata serapan dari bahasa Sanskerta-Kawi [[homofon|yang bunyinya sama]] dalam bahasa Sunda dapat tetap dibedakan dalam tulisan, misal antara kata ''pada'' (ꦥꦢ, tanah/bumi), ''pāda'' (ꦥꦴꦢ, kaki), dan ''padha'' (ꦥꦣ, sama), serta antara kata ''asta'' (ꦲꦱ꧀ꦠ, adalah), ''astha'' (ꦲꦱ꧀ꦡ, tulang), dan ''aṣṭa'' (ꦄꦰ꧀ꦛ, delapan).<ref>{{cite book|last=Tinggen|first=I Nengah|year=1993|title=Pedoman Perubahan Ejaan Bahasa Sunda dengan Huruf Latin dan Huruf Sunda|place=Singaraja|publisher=UD.

Taiwan held strategic wartime importance as Imperial Japanese military campaigns first expanded and then contracted over the course of [[World War II]]. The [[Imperial Japanese Navy]] operated heavily from Taiwanese ports. The "[[The Japanese Navy Taiwan and South Pacific Mandate political project|South Strike Group]]" was based at the [[Taihoku Imperial University]] in Taipei. Important Japanese military bases and industrial centres throughout Taiwan, such as Kaohsiung and Keelung, became targets of heavy raids by [[Raid on Taipei|American bombers]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Shu LinKou Air Station: World War II|url=http://shulinkou.tripod.com/dawg2e.html|publisher=Ken Ashley, U.S. military photo archives|access-date=14 June 2011}}</ref> In October 1944 the [[Formosa Air Battle]] was fought between American carriers and Japanese forces based in Taiwan. |

After the end of World War II, the Chinese Civil War resumed between the Chinese Nationalists (Kuomintang), led by Generalissimo [[Chiang Kai-shek]], and the [[Chinese Communist Party]] (CCP), led by [[Chairman of the Chinese Communist Party|CCP Chairman]] [[Mao Zedong]]. Throughout the months of 1949, a series of Chinese Communist offensives led to the capture of its capital [[Nanjing]] on 23 April and the subsequent defeat of the Nationalist army on the mainland, and the Communists founded the People's Republic of China on 1 October.<ref>{{Cite book|last=Kubek|first=Anthony |title=How the Far East was lost: American policy and the creation of Communist China|year=1963|isbn=978-0-85622-000-5}}</ref> |

After losing control of mainland China in 1949, the ROC retained control of Taiwan and Penghu ([[Taiwan Province|Taiwan, ROC]]), parts of Fujian ([[Fujian Province, Republic of China|Fujian, ROC]])—specifically Kinmen, [[Wuqiu, Kinmen|Wuqiu]] (now part of Kinmen) and the Matsu Islands and two major [[South China Sea Islands|islands in the South China Sea]] (within the [[Pratas Islands|Dongsha]]/Pratas and [[Spratly Islands|Nansha]]/Spratly island groups). These territories have remained under ROC governance until the present day. The ROC also briefly retained control of the entirety of [[Hainan]] (an island province), parts of [[Zhejiang]] ([[Chekiang Province, Republic of China|Chekiang]])—specifically the [[Dachen Islands]] and [[Yijiangshan Islands]]—and portions of [[Tibet (1912–1951)|Tibet]], [[Qinghai]], [[Xinjiang Province, Republic of China|Sinkiang]] and [[Yunnan]]. The Communists [[battle of Hainan Island|captured Hainan]] in 1950, captured the Dachen Islands and Yijiangshan Islands during the [[First Taiwan Strait Crisis]] in 1955 and defeated the [[Kuomintang Islamic insurgency|ROC revolts in Northwest China]] in 1958. ROC forces in Yunnan province entered Burma and Thailand in the 1950s and [[1960–61 campaign at the China–Burma border|were defeated by Communists in 1961]]. Ever since losing control of mainland China, the Kuomintang continued to claim sovereignty over 'all of China', which it defined to include mainland China (including Tibet), Taiwan (including Penghu), [[Outer Mongolia]] {{lang|zh|外蒙古}}, and [[administrative divisions of Taiwan|other minor territories]]. |

Initially, the United States abandoned the KMT and expected that Taiwan would fall to the Communists. However, in 1950 the conflict between [[North Korea]] and [[South Korea]], which had been ongoing since the Japanese withdrawal in 1945, escalated into full-blown war, and in the context of the Cold War, US President [[Harry S. Truman]] intervened again and dispatched the US Navy's 7th Fleet into the [[Taiwan Strait]] to prevent hostilities between Taiwan and mainland China.<ref name=1950-US-DoD>{{Cite journal|author=US Department of Defense |title=Classified Teletype Conference, dated 27 June 1950, between the Pentagon and General Douglas MacArthur regarding authorization to use naval and air forces in support of South Korea.

As the Chinese Civil War continued without truce, the government built up military fortifications throughout Taiwan. Within this effort, KMT veterans built the now famous [[Central Cross-Island Highway]] through the [[Taroko Gorge]] in the 1950s. The two sides would continue to engage in sporadic military clashes with seldom publicized details well into the 1960s on the China coastal islands with an unknown number of [[Project National Glory|night raids]]. During the [[Second Taiwan Strait Crisis]] in September 1958, Taiwan's landscape saw [[Nike-Hercules missile]] batteries added, with the formation of the 1st Missile Battalion Chinese Army that would not be deactivated until 1997. Newer generations of missile batteries have since replaced the Nike Hercules systems throughout the island. |

During the 1960s and 1970s, the ROC maintained an authoritarian, single-party government while its economy became industrialized and technology-oriented.

Until the 1970s the government was regarded by Western critics as undemocratic for upholding [[martial law]], for severely repressing any political opposition, and for controlling media. The KMT did not allow the creation of new parties and those that existed did not seriously compete with the KMT. Thus, competitive democratic elections did not exist.<ref>{{cite book |last=Sun |first=Yat-sen |author2=Julie Lee Wei |author3=Ramon Hawley Myers |author4=Donald G.

[[Chiang Ching-kuo]], Chiang Kai-shek's son and successor as the ROC president and chairman of the KMT, began [[History of Taiwan#Democratic reforms|reforms]] to the political system in the mid-1980s. He sought to move more authority to "[[bensheng ren]]" (residents of Taiwan before Japan's surrender in World War II and their descendants) instead of continuing to promote "[[waisheng ren]]" (residents who came to the island in the 1940s and 50s after Japan's surrender and their descendants) as his father had.<ref name="Kagan">Richard Kagan.

In 1986, the [[Democratic Progressive Party]] (DPP) was formed and inaugurated as the first opposition party in the ROC to counter the KMT. A year later, Chiang Ching-kuo lifted martial law on the main island of Taiwan (martial law was lifted on Penghu in 1979, Matsu island in 1992 and Kinmen island in 1993). With the KMT lifting martial law, moving toward democracy, and choosing the native Taiwanese Lee Teng-hui to lead the country, the opposition DPP groped for a message; it would go on to lose the first direct presidential election in 1996.<ref name="EckholmNYT2000">{{Cite news|last=Eckholm |first=Erik |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2000/03/22/world/why-a-victory-in-taiwan-wasn-t-enough-for-some.html |title=Why a Victory in Taiwan Wasn't Enough for Some|newspaper=The New York Times|date=22 March 2000 |access-date=28 May 2009}}</ref> |

After the death of Chiang Ching-kuo in January 1988, Lee Teng-hui succeeded him and became the first president born in Taiwan. Lee continued the democratic reforms to the government and replaced many "waisheng ren" in government positions with "bensheng ren". Under Lee, Taiwan underwent a process of [[Taiwanese localization movement|localization]] in which Taiwanese culture and history were promoted over a pan-China viewpoint in contrast to earlier KMT policies which had promoted a Chinese identity. Lee's reforms included printing banknotes from the Central Bank rather than the Provincial Bank of Taiwan, and streamlining the [[Taiwan Provincial Government]] with most of its functions transferred to the [[Executive Yuan]]. Under Lee, the original members of the [[Legislative Yuan]] and [[National Assembly of the Republic of China|National Assembly]] (a former supreme legislative body defunct in 2005),<ref>{{Cite thesis|url=http://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/handle/246246/262968 |

Reforms continued in the 1990s. The [[Additional Articles of the Constitution of the Republic of China]] and the [[Act Governing Relations between the People of the Taiwan Area and the Mainland Area]] defined the status of the ROC, making Taiwan its ''de facto'' territory.

The island of Taiwan lies in a complex [[tectonics|tectonic]] area between the [[Yangtze Plate]] to the west and north, the [[Okinawa Plate]] on the north-east, and the [[Philippine Mobile Belt]] on the east and south. The upper part of the crust on the island is primarily made up of a series of [[terrane]]s, mostly old [[island arc]]s which have been forced together by the collision of the forerunners of the [[Eurasian Plate]] and the [[Philippine Sea Plate]]. These have been further uplifted as a result of the detachment of a portion of the Eurasian Plate as it was [[subduction|subducted]] beneath remnants of the Philippine Sea Plate, a process which left the crust under Taiwan more buoyant.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.geo.arizona.edu/~anderson/taiwan/tai_index.html |title=Geology of Taiwan |publisher=University of Arizona |access-date=1 August 2010}}</ref> |
|||
The east and south of Taiwan are a complex system of belts formed by, and part of the zone of, active collision between the North Luzon Trough portion of the [[Luzon Volcanic Arc]] and South China, where accreted portions of the Luzon Arc and Luzon forearc form the [[Haian Range|eastern Coastal Range]] and parallel inland [[Huatung Valley|Longitudinal Valley]] of Taiwan, respectively.<ref>Clift, Schouten and Draut (2003) in ''Intra-Oceanic Subduction Systems: Tectonic and Magmatic Processes'', {{ISBN|1-86239-147-5}} p84–86</ref> |

The major seismic faults in Taiwan correspond to the various suture zones between the various terranes. These have produced major quakes throughout the history of the island. On 21 September 1999, a 7.3 quake known as the "[[1999 Jiji (Chichi) earthquake|921 earthquake]]" killed more than 2,400 people. The [[seismic hazard map]] for Taiwan by the [[USGS]] shows 9/10 of the island at the highest rating (most hazardous).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.seismo.ethz.ch/GSHAP/eastasia/asiafin.gif |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20000303055258/http://seismo.ethz.ch/gshap/eastasia/asiafin.gif |url-status=dead |archive-date=3 March 2000 |title=USGS seismic hazard map of Eastern Asia |publisher=Seismo.ethz.ch |access-date=30 May 2011 }}</ref> |

Broadly speaking, domestic public opinion has preferred maintaining the status quo, though pro-independence sentiment has steadily risen since 1994. In June 2021, an annual poll run by the National Chengchi University found that 28.2 percent of respondents supported the status quo and postponing a decision, 27.5 percent supported maintaining the status quo indefinitely, 25.8 percent supported the status quo with a move toward independence, 5.9 percent supported the status quo with a move toward unification, 5.7 percent gave no response, 5.6 percent supported independence as soon as possible, and 1.5 percent supported unification as soon as possible.<ref name="chengchiIndepUnif">{{cite web |title=Taiwan Independence vs. Unification with the Mainland |url=https://esc.nccu.edu.tw/PageDoc/Detail?fid=7801&id=6963 |publisher=Election Study Center, [[National Chengchi University]] |access-date=27 October 2021}}</ref> |

The government of the Republic of China was founded on the 1947 [[Constitution of the Republic of China|Constitution of the ROC]] and its [[Three Principles of the People]], which states that the ROC "shall be a democratic republic of the people, to be governed by the people and for the people".<ref name="yb:government">{{cite book |title=The Republic of China Yearbook |url=http://www.gio.gov.tw/taiwan-website/5-gp/yearbook/ |chapter=Chapter 4: Government |chapter-url=http://www.gio.gov.tw/taiwan-website/5-gp/yearbook/docs/ch04.pdf |pages=55–65 |publisher=Government Information Office, Republic of China (Taiwan) |year=2011 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080512091917/http://www.gio.gov.tw/taiwan-website/5-gp/yearbook/ |archive-date=12 May 2008}}</ref> It underwent significant revisions in the 1990s, known collectively as the Additional Articles. The government is divided into five branches (''Yuan''): the Executive Yuan (cabinet), the Legislative Yuan (Congress or Parliament), the [[Judicial Yuan]], the [[Control Yuan]] (audit agency), and the [[Examination Yuan]] (civil service examination agency). |

The [[head of state]] and [[commander-in-chief]] of the armed forces is the [[President of the Republic of China|president]], who is elected by popular vote for a maximum of 2 four-year terms on the same ticket as the vice-president. The president appoints the members of the Executive Yuan as their cabinet, including a [[Premier of the Republic of China|premier]], who is officially the President of the Executive Yuan; members are responsible for policy and administration.<ref name="yb:government" /> |

The main [[Legislature|legislative body]] is the [[Unicameralism|unicameral]] Legislative Yuan with 113 seats. Seventy-three are elected by popular vote from single-member constituencies; thirty-four are elected based on the proportion of nationwide votes received by participating political parties in a separate party list ballot; and six are elected from two three-member aboriginal constituencies. Members serve four-year terms. Originally the unicameral National Assembly, as a standing [[Constitutional convention (political meeting)|constitutional convention]] and [[electoral college]], held some parliamentary functions, but the National Assembly was abolished in 2005 with the power of constitutional amendments handed over to the Legislative Yuan and all eligible voters of the Republic via referendums.<ref name="yb:government" /><ref>{{cite news|title=Taiwan assembly passes changes |date=7 June 2005 |work=BBC News |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/4616043.stm}}</ref> |

The premier is selected by the president without the need for approval from the legislature, but the legislature can pass laws without regard for the president, as neither he nor the Premier wields veto power.<ref name="yb:government" /> Thus, there is little incentive for the president and the legislature to negotiate on legislation if they are of opposing parties. After the election of the pan-Green's Chen Shui-bian as President in 2000, legislation repeatedly stalled because of deadlock with the Legislative Yuan, which was controlled by a pan-Blue majority.<ref>{{cite news |last=Huang |first=Jei-hsuan |url=http://www.taipeitimes.com/News/editorials/archives/2006/09/14/2003327608 |title=Letter: KMT holds the key|newspaper=Taipei Times |date=14 September 2006 |page=8 |access-date=28 May 2009}}</ref> Historically, the ROC has been dominated by strongman single party politics.

The Judicial Yuan is the highest [[judiciary|judicial]] organ. It interprets the constitution and other laws and decrees, judges administrative suits, and disciplines public functionaries. The president and vice-president of the Judicial Yuan and additional thirteen justices form the Council of Grand Justices.<ref>{{cite wikisource |title=Additional Articles of the Constitution of the Republic of China (2005) |at=Article 5}}</ref> They are nominated and appointed by the president, with the consent of the Legislative Yuan. The highest court, the [[Supreme Court of the Republic of China|Supreme Court]], consists of a number of civil and criminal divisions, each of which is formed by a presiding judge and four associate judges, all appointed for life. In 1993, a separate [[List of constitutional courts|constitutional court]] was established to resolve constitutional disputes, regulate the activities of political parties and accelerate the democratization process. There is no [[jury trial|trial by jury]] but the right to a fair public trial is protected by law and respected in practice; many cases are presided over by multiple judges.<ref name="yb:government" /> |

The Control Yuan is a watchdog agency that monitors (controls) the actions of the executive.

The constitutional basis for this transition to democracy was gradually laid in the Additional Articles of the Constitution of the Republic of China. In addition, these articles localized the Constitution by suspending portions of the Constitution designed for governance of China and replacing them with articles adapted for the governance of and guaranteeing the political rights of residents of the Taiwan Area, as defined in the Act Governing Relations between the People of the Taiwan Area and the Mainland Area.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Yeh |first1=Jiunn-rong |title=The Constitution of Taiwan |date=2016 |publisher=Bloomsbury |isbn=978-1849465120 |pages=3–4}}</ref> |

Taiwan's political scene is divided into two major camps in terms of cross-Strait relations, i.e. how Taiwan should relate to China or the PRC. The Pan-Green Coalition (e.g. the Democratic Progressive Party) leans pro-independence, and the Pan-Blue Coalition (e.g. the Kuomintang) leans pro-unification. Moderates in both camps regard the Republic of China as a sovereign independent state, but the Pan-Green Coalition regard the ROC as [[Four-Stage Theory of the Republic of China|synonymous with Taiwan]], while moderates in the Pan-Blue Coalition view it as [[1992 Consensus|synonymous with China]]. These positions formed against the backdrop of the PRC's [[Anti-Secession Law]], which threatens invasion in the event of formal independence. |

Roughly 84 per cent of Taiwan's population are descendants of Han Chinese immigrants from Qing China between 1683 and 1895. Another significant fraction descends from Han Chinese who immigrated from mainland China in the late 1940s and early 1950s. The shared cultural origin combined with several hundred years of geographical separation, some hundred years of political separation and foreign influences, as well as hostility between the rival ROC and PRC have resulted in national identity being a contentious issue with political overtones. |
|||
Since democratic reforms and the lifting of martial law, a distinct Taiwanese identity (as opposed to Taiwanese identity as a subset of a Chinese identity) is often at the heart of political debates. Its acceptance makes the island distinct from mainland China, and therefore may be seen as a step towards forming a consensus for ''de jure'' Taiwan independence.<ref name="power-shift">{{Cite book|last=Shambaugh|first=David L.|title=Power shift|publisher=University of California Press|year=2006|pages=179–183 |isbn=978-0-520-24570-9}}</ref> The Pan-Green camp supports a predominantly Taiwanese identity (although "Chinese" may be viewed as cultural heritage), while the Pan-Blue camp supports a predominantly Chinese identity (with "Taiwanese" as a regional/diasporic Chinese identity).<ref name="panblue-reunif-chineseid" /> The KMT has downplayed this stance in the recent years and now supports a Taiwanese identity as part of a Chinese identity.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://search.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bin/eo20081230ho.html|title=No sign of a 'peace agreement'|last=Okazaki|first=Hisahiko|date=30 December 2008|newspaper=Japan Times|access-date=15 July 2009|quote=For one thing, I believe there is recognition that the awareness of Taiwanese identity is now irreversible.

===Administrative divisions=== |
|||
{{Main|Administrative divisions of Taiwan}} |
|||
Taiwan is, in practice, divided into 22 subnational divisions, each with a self-governing body led by an elected leader and a legislative body with elected members. Duties of local governments include social services, education, urban planning, public construction, water management, environmental protection, transport, public safety, and more. |
|||
There are three types of subnational divisions: special municipalities, counties, and cities. Special municipalities and cities are further divided into districts for local administration. Counties are further divided into townships and county-administered cities which have elected mayors and councils, and share duties with the county. Some divisions are indigenous divisions which have different degrees of autonomy to standard ones. In addition, districts, cities and townships are further divided into villages and neighbourhoods. |

The [[Republic of China Army]] takes its roots in the [[National Revolutionary Army]], which was established by [[Sun Yat-sen]] in 1925 in [[Guangdong]] with a goal of reunifying China under the Kuomintang. When the [[People's Liberation Army]] won the Chinese Civil War, much of the National Revolutionary Army retreated to Taiwan along with the government. It was later reformed into the Republic of China Army. Units which surrendered and remained in mainland China were either disbanded or incorporated into the People's Liberation Army. |
|||
The ROC and the United States signed the Sino-American Mutual Defense Treaty in 1954, and established the [[United States Taiwan Defense Command]]. About 30,000 US troops were stationed in Taiwan, until the United States established diplomatic relations with the PRC in 1979.<ref>{{cite web|last1=Shortall|first1=Dominick|last2=Johnson|first2=Jesse|date=28 October 2020|title=Once unimaginable, some now debating return of U.S. forces to Taiwan|url=https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2020/10/28/asia-pacific/us-forces-taiwan-china/|access-date=6 January 2021|website=The Japan Times|language=en-US}}</ref> |

Today, Taiwan maintains a large and technologically advanced military, mainly as a defence to the constant threat of invasion by the People's Liberation Army using the Anti-Secession Law of the People's Republic of China as a pretext. This law authorizes the use of military force when certain conditions are met, such as a danger to mainlanders.<ref name=2004NatDefRpt /> |
|||
From 1949 to the 1970s, the primary mission of the Taiwanese military was to "retake mainland China" through Project National Glory. As this mission has transitioned away from attack because the relative strength of the PRC has massively increased, the ROC military has begun to shift emphasis from the traditionally dominant Army to the [[Republic of China Air Force|air force]] and [[Republic of China Navy|navy]]. |

However, many have retired and there are many more non-mainlanders enlisting in the armed forces in the younger generations, so the political leanings of the military have moved closer to the public norm in Taiwan.{{sfn|Swaine|Mulvenon|2001|p=65|ps=: "[...]the ROC military functioned until very recently as an instrument of KMT rule [...] the bulk of the officer corps is still composed of mainlanders, many of whom allegedly continue to support the values and outlook of more conservative KMT and New Party members. This is viewed as especially the case among the senior officers of the ROC Army. Hence, many DPP leaders insist that the first step to building a more secure Taiwan is to bring the military more fully under civilian control, to remove the dominant influence of conservative KMT elements, and to reduce what is regarded as an excessive emphasis on the maintenance of inappropriate ground force capabilities, as opposed to more appropriate air and naval capabilities."}} |

The quick industrialization and rapid growth of Taiwan during the latter half of the 20th century has been called the "Taiwan Miracle". Taiwan is one of the "Four Asian Tigers" alongside Hong Kong, South Korea and Singapore. |
|||
Japanese rule prior to and during World War II brought changes in the public and private sectors, most notably in the area of public works, which enabled rapid communications and facilitated transport throughout much of the island. The Japanese also improved public education and made it compulsory for all residents of Taiwan. By 1945, hyperinflation was in progress in mainland China and Taiwan as a result of the war with Japan. To isolate Taiwan from it, the Nationalist government created a new currency area for the island, and began a price stabilization programme. These efforts significantly slowed inflation. |

When the KMT government fled to Taiwan it brought millions of [[tael]]s (where 1 tael = 37.5 g or ~1.2 [[troy ounce|ozt]]) of gold and the foreign currency reserve of mainland China, which, according to the KMT, stabilized prices and reduced hyperinflation.<ref>{{cite web|date=6 April 2011|title=Gold Shipped to Taiwan in 1949 Helped Stabilize ROC on Taiwan|url=http://www.kmt.org.tw/english/page.aspx?type=article&mnum=112&anum=9442|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110927081949/http://www.kmt.org.tw/english/page.aspx?type=article&mnum=112&anum=9442|url-status=dead|archive-date=27 September 2011|newspaper=Kuomintang News Network|access-date=14 June 2011}} Translated from {{cite news |author=王銘義 |date=5 April 2011 |script-title=zh:1949年運台黃金 中華民國保命本 |newspaper=China Times |url=http://forums.chinatimes.com/report/goldfile/series-cnt0405ct02.htm |access-date=21 February 2015 |archive-date=21 February 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150221165535/http://forums.chinatimes.com/report/goldfile/series-cnt0405ct02.htm |url-status=dead }}</ref> Perhaps more importantly, as part of its retreat to Taiwan, the KMT brought the intellectual and business elites from mainland China.<ref>{{cite book | last =Roy | first =Denny | title =Taiwan: A Political History | url =https://archive.org/details/taiwan00denn | url-access =registration | publisher =Cornell University Press |year=2003 | location =Ithaca, NY | pages =[https://archive.org/details/taiwan00denn/page/76 76], 77 | isbn =978-0-8014-8805-4 }}</ref> The KMT government instituted many laws and [[land reform]]s that it had never effectively enacted on mainland China.

In 1950, with the outbreak of the Korean War, the United States began an aid programme which resulted in fully stabilized prices by 1952.<ref>{{harvnb|Makinen|Woodward|1989}}: "It was the fiscal regime change on Taiwan, as in the European episodes, that finally brought price stability. It was the aid policy that brought the budget to near balance, and when the aid programme reached its full proportions in 1952, prices stabilized."</ref> Economic development was encouraged by American economic aid and programmes such as the [[Joint Commission on Rural Reconstruction]], which turned the agricultural sector into the basis for later growth. Under the combined stimulus of the land reform and the agricultural development programmes, agricultural production increased at an average annual rate of 4 per cent from 1952 to 1959, which was greater than the population growth, 3.6 per cent.<ref>Ralph Clough, "Taiwan under Nationalist Rule, 1949–1982," in Roderick MacFarquar et al., ed., ''Cambridge History of China'', Vol 15, The People's Republic Pt 2 (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1991), p. 837</ref> |

In 1962, Taiwan had a (nominal) per-capita gross national product (GNP) of $170, placing its economy on a par with those of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. On a [[purchasing power parity]] (PPP) basis, its GDP per capita in the early 1960s was $1,353 (in 1990 prices). By 2011 per-capita GNP, adjusted for purchasing power parity (PPP), had risen to $37,000, contributing to a [[Human Development Index]] (HDI) equivalent to that of other developed countries. In 2019, the HDI calculated by Taiwan's government was the [[List of countries in Asia and Oceania by Human Development Index|seventh-highest in the Asia-Pacific region]].<ref name="HDI 2019"/> |

In 1974, Chiang Ching-kuo implemented the [[Ten Major Construction Projects]], the beginning foundations that helped Taiwan transform into its current export driven economy. Since the 1990s, a number of Taiwan-based technology firms have expanded their reach around the world. Well-known international technology companies headquartered in Taiwan include personal computer manufacturers [[Acer Inc.]] and [[Asus]], mobile phone maker [[HTC]], as well as electronics manufacturing giant [[Foxconn]], which makes products for [[Apple Inc.|Apple]], [[Amazon (company)|Amazon]], and [[Microsoft]]. [[Computex Taipei]] is a major computer expo, held since 1981. |

Although the economy of Taiwan benefits from this situation, some have expressed the view that the island has become increasingly dependent on the mainland Chinese economy.

Because of its conservative financial approach and its entrepreneurial strengths, Taiwan suffered little compared with many of its neighbours in the [[1997 Asian financial crisis]]. Unlike its neighbours, South Korea and Japan, the Taiwanese economy is dominated by small and medium-sized businesses, rather than the large business groups. The global economic downturn, however, combined with poor policy co-ordination by the new administration and increasing bad debts in the banking system, pushed Taiwan into [[recession]] in 2001, the first whole year of negative growth since 1947. Due to the relocation of many manufacturing and labour-intensive industries to the PRC, unemployment also reached a level not seen since the 1970s oil crisis. This became a major issue in the [[2004 Republic of China presidential election|2004 presidential election]]. Growth averaged more than 4 per cent in the 2002–2006 period and the unemployment rate fell below 4 per cent.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qa5411/is_199801/ai_n21432097/ |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090608110113/http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qa5411/is_199801/ai_n21432097/ |url-status=dead |archive-date=8 June 2009 |title=Coping with Asian financial crisis: The Taiwan experience | Seoul Journal of Economics |publisher=Find Articles at BNET |date=28 April 2009 |access-date=28 May 2009}}</ref> |

Since the [[May Fourth Movement]], [[written vernacular Chinese]] had replaced [[Classical Chinese]] and emerged as the mainstream [[Written vernacular Chinese|written Chinese]] in the Republic of China. But [[Classical Chinese]] continued to be widely used in the [[Government of the Republic of China]]. Most government documents in the [[Republic of China]] were written in [[Classical Chinese]] until reforms in the 1970s, in a reform movement spearheaded by President [[Yen Chia-kan]] to shift the written style to a more integrated [[vernacular Chinese]] and [[Classical Chinese]] style (文白合一行文).<ref>{{cite book|first=Feng-fu|last=Tsao|chapter=The language planning situation in Taiwan|pages=60–106|editor1-last=Baldauf|editor1-first=Richard B.|editor2-first=Robert B.|editor2-last=Kaplan|title=Language planning in Nepal, Taiwan, and Sweden|publisher=Multilingual Matters|year=2000|volume=115|isbn=978-1-85359-483-0}} pages 75–76.</ref><ref>{{cite book|last=Cheong|first=Ching|title=Will Taiwan break away: the rise of Taiwanese nationalism|publisher=World Scientific|year=2001|pages=187|isbn=978-981-02-4486-6}}</ref> After January 1, 2005, the [[Executive Yuan]] also changed the long-standing official document writing habit from vertical writing style to horizontal writing style. |

Today, pure [[Classical Chinese]] is occasionally used in formal or ceremonial occasions, religious or cultural rites in Taiwan. The ''[[National Anthem of the Republic of China]]'' ({{lang|zh-Hant-TW|中華民國國歌}}), for example, is in [[Classical Chinese]]. [[Taoist]] texts are still preserved in [[Classical Chinese]] from the time they were composed. [[Buddhism|Buddhist]] texts, or [[sutra]]s, are still preserved in [[Classical Chinese]] from the time they were composed or translated from [[Sanskrit]] sources. In practice there is a socially accepted continuum between vernacular Chinese and Classical Chinese. Most official [[Government of the Republic of China|government]] documents, [[Law of Taiwan|legal]], [[Supreme Court of the Republic of China|courts rulings]] and [[Ministry of Justice (Taiwan)|judiciary]] documents use a combined [[vernacular Chinese]] and [[Classical Chinese]] style (文白合一行文).<ref>{{cite web |title=法律統一用語表-常見公文用語說明|url=http://oga.ncu.edu.tw/ncuoga/dispatch/doc/%E5%B8%B8%E8%A6%8B%E5%85%AC%E6%96%87%E7%94%A8%E8%AA%9E%E8%AA%AA%E6%98%8E1050106.pdf |access-date=2 June 2021 |language=Chinese}}</ref> For example, most official notices and formal letters are written with a number of stock Classical Chinese expressions (e.g. salutation, closing).

The current [[healthcare system]] in Taiwan, known as National Health Insurance (NHI, {{lang-zh|全民健康保險}}), was instituted in 1995. NHI is a [[Single-payer health care|single-payer]] compulsory social insurance plan that centralizes the disbursement of healthcare funds. The system promises equal access to healthcare for all citizens, and the population coverage had reached 99 per cent by the end of 2004.<ref>Fanchiang, Cecilia.[http://taiwanjournal.nat.gov.tw/site/Tj/ct.asp?xItem=20439&CtNode=122 "New IC health insurance card expected to offer many benefits"] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080606010447/http://taiwanjournal.nat.gov.tw/site/Tj/ct.asp?xItem=20439&CtNode=122 |date=6 June 2008 }}, ''Taiwan Journal, 2 January 2004'' Accessed 28 March 2008</ref> NHI is mainly financed through premiums, which are based on the payroll tax, and is supplemented with out-of-pocket co-payments and direct government funding. Preventative health service, low-income families, veterans, children under three years old, and catastrophic diseases are exempt from co-payment. Low income households maintain 100 per cent premium coverage by the NHI and co-pays are reduced for disabled or certain elderly people.{{Citation needed|date=March 2013}} |
|||
Early in the program, the payment system was predominantly [[fee-for-service]]. Most health providers operate in the private sector and form a competitive market on the health delivery side. However, many healthcare providers took advantage of the system by offering unnecessary services to a larger number of patients and then billing the government. In the face of increasing loss and the need for cost containment, NHI changed the payment system from fee-for-service to a global budget, a kind of [[prospective payment system]], in 2002. |
|||
The implementation of universal healthcare created fewer [[health disparities]] for lower-income citizens in Taiwan. According to a recently published survey, out of 3,360 patients surveyed at a randomly chosen hospital, 75.1 per cent of the patients said they are "very satisfied" with the hospital service; 20.5 per cent said they are "okay" with the service. Only 4.4 per cent of the patients said they are either "not satisfied" or "very not satisfied" with the service or care provided.<ref>{{Cite news|title=Taiwanese Hospital Public Satisfaction Poll |date=October 2004|publisher=Taiwan Department of Health |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090921050255/http://www.hcquality.helthe.net/reports/showreports.php?id=2_1|url=http://www.hcquality.helthe.net/reports/showreports.php?id=2_1|archive-date=21 September 2009|language=zh}}</ref> |

The Taiwanese disease control authority is the [[Taiwan Centers for Disease Control]] (CDC), and during the [[Severe acute respiratory syndrome|SARS]] outbreak in March 2003 there were 347 confirmed cases. During the outbreak the CDC and local governments set up monitoring stations throughout public transportation, recreational sites and other public areas.

During the [[Martial law in Taiwan|martial law period]] in which the Republic of China was officially [[Anti-communism|anti-communist]], the [[Kuomintang]] promoted an official [[Chinese culture|traditional Chinese culture]] over Taiwan in order to emphasize that the Republic of China represents the true orthodoxy to [[Chinese Culture]] (and therefore the "real and legitimate China") as opposed to [[People's Republic of China|Communist China]].<ref>{{cite book |authors=陳鐵健、黃鐵炫 |title=《蔣介石與中國文化》 |location=Hong Kong |publisher=中華書局 |year=1992 |page=122 |language=Chinese }}</ref> The government launched what's known as the [[Chinese Cultural Renaissance]] movement in Taiwan in opposition to the cultural destructions caused by the [[Communist Party of China|Chinese Communist Party]] during the [[Cultural Revolution]]. The General Assembly of Chinese Culture (中華文化總會) was established as a movement promotion council to help promote Chinese Culture in Taiwan and overseas. It was [[Kuomintang]]'s first structured plan for cultural development on Taiwan. [[Chiang Kai Shek|Chiang]] himself was the head of the General Assembly of Chinese Culture. Subsequent [[President of the Republic of China]] also became the head of this General Assembly. The [[Chinese Cultural Renaissance]] movement in Taiwan coupled with Chinese Cultural education in Taiwan had helped to elevate the cultural refinement, mannerism and politeness of many Taiwanese, in contrast to the cultural destruction (uncultured behaviour) of many mainland Chinese due to the [[Cultural Revolution]].<ref>{{cite web|title=5 Reasons Why Chinese Tourists Are So Rude|url=https://www.jeraldinephneah.com/5-reasons-why-chinese-tourists-are-so-rude|access-date=4 June 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210308042750/https://www.jeraldinephneah.com/5-reasons-why-chinese-tourists-are-so-rude|archive-date=8 March 2021|url-status=live}}</ref> This has also led to [[Chinese Culture]] (especially its soft culture) being better preserved in Taiwan than in [[mainland China]]. An example of this preservation is the continued use of [[Traditional Chinese]]. The influence of [[Confucianism]] can be found in the behaviour of [[Taiwanese people]], known for their friendliness and politeness.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.bbc.com/news/world-radio-and-tv-15153707|access-date=2021-06-04|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210127064800/https://www.bbc.com/news/world-radio-and-tv-15153707|archive-date=27 January 2021|title=Archived copy|url-status=live}}</ref> |

Reflecting the continuing controversy surrounding the political status of Taiwan, politics continues to play a role in the conception and development of a Taiwanese cultural identity, especially in its relationship to Chinese culture.<ref>{{harvnb|Yip|2004|pp=230–248}}; {{harvnb|Makeham|2005|pp=2–8}}; {{harvnb|Chang|2005|p=224}}</ref> In recent years, the concept of Taiwanese [[multiculturalism]] has been proposed as a relatively apolitical alternative view, which has allowed for the inclusion of mainlanders and other minority groups into the continuing re-definition of Taiwanese culture as collectively held systems of meaning and customary patterns of thought and behaviour shared by the people of Taiwan.<ref>{{harvnb|Hsiau|2005|pp=125–129}}; {{harvnb|Winckler|1994|pp=23–41}}</ref> [[Identity politics]], along with the over one hundred years of political separation from mainland China, has led to distinct traditions in many areas, including [[Taiwanese cuisine|cuisine]] and [[Music of Taiwan|music]]. |

Taiwan hosts the [[National Palace Museum]], which houses more than 650,000 pieces of Chinese bronze, jade, calligraphy, painting, and porcelain and is considered one of the greatest collections of Chinese art and objects in the world.<ref>{{cite encyclopedia|url=http://encarta.msn.com/encyclopedia_761557357_9/Museum.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091028163715/http://encarta.msn.com/encyclopedia_761557357_9/Museum.html|title=Museum|archive-date=28 October 2009|work=archive.org}}</ref> The KMT moved this collection from the [[Forbidden City]] in Beijing in 1933 and part of the collection was eventually transported to Taiwan during the Chinese Civil War. The collection, estimated to be one-tenth of China's cultural treasures, is so extensive that only 1 per cent is on display at any time. The PRC had said that the collection was stolen and has called for its return, but the ROC has long defended its control of the collection as a necessary act to protect the pieces from destruction, especially during the [[Cultural Revolution]]. Relations regarding this treasure have since warmed, with the National Palace Museum loaning artwork to various museums in the PRC in 2010.<ref>{{cite news |

[[Karaoke]], drawn from contemporary Japanese culture, is extremely popular in Taiwan, where it is known as KTV. KTV businesses operate in a hotel-like style, renting out small rooms and ballrooms according to the number of guests in a group. Many KTV establishments partner with restaurants and buffets to form all-encompassing and elaborate evening affairs for families, friends, or businessmen. Tour busses that travel around Taiwan have several TVs, primarily for singing karaoke. The entertainment counterpart of a KTV is [[MTV Mandarin#Operating channels|MTV Taiwan]], particularly in urban areas. There, DVD movies can be played in a private theatre room. However, MTV, more so than KTV, has a growing reputation for being a place that young couples will go to be alone and intimate.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.reachtoteachrecruiting.com/about-reach-to-teach/monthly-events-html/ktv-in-taiwan-karoake-in-taiwan/|access-date=2021-04-05|website=www.reachtoteachrecruiting.com|title=KTV in Taiwan (Karoake in Taiwan)}}</ref>{{Citation needed|date=November 2020}} |

Aksara Sunda adalah salah satu aksara tradisional Indonesia yang berkembang di pulau Jawa. Aksara ini terutama digunakan untuk menulis bahasa Sunda, tetapi dalam perkembangannya juga digunakan untuk menulis beberapa bahasa daerah lainnya seperti bahasa Kawi, Jawa Cirebon dan Arab. Aksara Sunda merupakan turunan dari aksara Brahmi India melalui perantara aksara Kawi dan berkerabat dekat dengan aksara Jawa. Aksara Sunda aktif digunakan dalam sastra maupun tulisan sehari-hari masyarakat Sunda sejak abad ke-14 hingga akhir abad ke-18 sebelum fungsinya berangsur-angsur tergantikan dengan aksara Jawa dan Latin. Aksara ini masih diajarkan di Jawa Barat dan Banten[1] sebagai bagian dari muatan lokal, tetapi dengan penerapan yang terbatas dalam kehidupan sehari-hari.
Aksara Sunda adalah sistem tulisan abugida yang terdiri dari 19 aksara dasar. Seperti aksara Brahmi lainnya, setiap konsonan merepresentasikan satu suku kata dengan vokal inheren /a/ yang dapat diubah dengan pemberian diakritik tertentu. Arah penulisan aksara Sunda adalah kiri ke kanan. Secara tradisional aksara ini ditulis tanpa spasi antarkata (scriptio continua).
Bentuk
[sunting | sunting sumber]Aksara
[sunting | sunting sumber]Aksara merupakan huruf dasar yang merepresentasikan satu suku kata. Aksara Sunda memiliki sekitar 19 aksara dasar. Berikut adalah pengelompokannya.
Wyanjana
[sunting | sunting sumber]Aksara wyanjana (ᮃᮾᮞᮛᮝᮡᮑ᮪ᮏᮔ) adalah aksara konsonan dengan vokal inheren /a/ atau /ɔ/. Sebagai salah satu aksara turunan Brahmi, aksara Sunda pada awalnya memiliki 19 aksara wyanjana untuk menuliskan 19 bunyi konsonan yang digunakan dalam bahasa Sanskerta dan Kawi. Bentuknya dapat dilihat sebagaimana berikut:[2][3]

Catatan
Pelafalan berikut tidak digunakan dalam bahasa Sunda modern:
|
Dalam perkembangannya, bahasa Sunda modern tidak lagi menggunakan keseluruhan aksara wyanjana dalam deret Sanskerta-Kawi. Aksara Sunda modern hanya menggunakan 18 bunyi konsonan dan 18 aksara dasar yang kemudian disebut sebagai aksara nglegena (ᮃᮾᮞᮛᮍᮣᮨᮌᮨᮔ).
Swara
[sunting | sunting sumber]Aksara swara (ᮃᮾᮞᮛᮞᮭᮛ) adalah aksara yang digunakan untuk menulis suku kata yang tidak memiliki konsonan di awal, atau dalam kata lain suku kata yang hanya terdiri vokal. Aksara Sunda memiliki 7 aksara vokal yang diwarisi dari tradisi tulis Sanskerta. Bentuknya dapat dilihat sebagaimana berikut:[3]

Catatan
|
Pa cerek ꦉ dan da lelet ꦊ adalah konsonan silabis yang dalam bahasa Sanskerta-Kawi dianggap sebagai huruf vokal.[4][5] Ketika digunakan untuk bahasa selain Sanskerta, pelafalan kedua aksara ini sering kali bervariasi. Dalam perkembangan bahasa Sunda modern, hanya pa cerek dan nga lelet yang digunakan; pa cerek dilafalkan /rə/ (sebagaimana re dalam kata "remah") sementara nga lelet dilafalkan /lə/ (sebagaimana le dalam kata "lemah"). Dalam pengajaran modern, aksara ini sering kali dipisahkan dari aksara swara menjadi kategori sendiri yang disebut aksara gantèn. Kedua aksara ini wajib digunakan untuk mengganti tiap kombinasi ra+pepet (ꦫꦼ → ꦉ) serta la+pepet (ꦭꦼ → ꦊ) tanpa terkecuali.[6]
Diakritik
[sunting | sunting sumber]Diakritik (sandhangan ꦱꦤ꧀ꦝꦔꦤ꧀) adalah tanda yang melekat pada aksara untuk mengubah vokal inheren aksara yang bersangkutan. Sebagaimana aksara, diakritik Sunda juga dapat dibagi ke dalam beberapa kelompok tergantung dari fungsi dan penggunaannya.
Swara
[sunting | sunting sumber]Sandhangan swara (ꦱꦤ꧀ꦝꦁꦔꦤ꧀ꦱ꧀ꦮꦫ) adalah sandhangan yang digunakan untuk mengubah voᮊkal inheren /a/ menjadi vokal lainnya, sebagaimana berikut:[7]

Catatan
Pelafalan berikut tidak digunakan dalam bahasa Sunda modern:
|
Sebagaimana aksara swara, hanya sandhangan vokal pendek yang umumnya diajarkan dan digunakan dalam bahasa Sunda kontemporer, sementara sandhangan vokal panjang digunakan dalam penulisan bahasa Sanskerta dan Kawi.
Panyigeging wanda
[sunting | sunting sumber]Sandhangan panyigeging wanda (ꦱꦤ꧀ꦝꦁꦔꦤ꧀ꦥꦚꦶꦒꦼꦒꦶꦁꦮꦤ꧀ꦢ) digunakan untuk menutup suatu suku kata dengan konsonan, sebagaimana berikut:[8]

Wyanjana
[sunting | sunting sumber]Sandhangan wyanjana (ꦱꦤ꧀ꦝꦁꦔꦤ꧀ꦮꦾꦚ꧀ꦗꦤ) digunakan untuk menuliskan gugus konsonan dengan semivokal dalam satu suku kata, sebagaimana berikut:[9]

Pasangan
[sunting | sunting sumber]Vokal inheren dari tiap aksara dasar dapat dimatikan dengan penggunaan diaktrik pangkon. Akan tetapi, pangkon normalnya tidak digunakan di tengah kata atau kalimat, sehingga untuk menuliskan suku kata tertutup di tengah kata dan kalimat, digunakanlah bentuk pasangan (ꦥꦱꦔꦤ꧀). Berbeda dengan pangkon, pasangan tidak hanya mematikan konsonan yang diiringinya tetapi juga menunjukkan konsonan selanjutnya. Sebagai contoh, aksara ma (ꦩ) yang diiringi bentuk pasangan dari pa (꧀ꦥ) menjadi mpa (ꦩ꧀ꦥ). Bentuk pasangan setiap aksara ada di tabel berikut:[10]

Angka
[sunting | sunting sumber]Aksara Sunda memiliki lambang bilangannya sendiri yang berlaku selayaknya angka Arab, tetapi sebagian bentuknya memiliki rupa yang persis sama dengan beberapa aksara Sunda, semisal angka 1 ꧑ dengan aksara wyanjana ga ꦒ, atau angka 8 ꧘ dengan aksara murda pa ꦦ. Karena persamaan bentuk ini, angka yang digunakan di tengah kalimat perlu diapit dengan tanda baca pada pangkat atau pada lingsa untuk memperjelas fungsinya sebagai lambang bilangan. Semisal, "tanggal 17 Juni" ditulis ꦠꦁꦒꦭ꧀꧇꧑꧗꧇ꦗꦸꦤꦶ atau ꦠꦁꦒꦭ꧀꧈꧑꧗꧈ꦗꦸꦤꦶ. Pengapit ini dapat diabaikan apabila fungsi lambang bilangan sudah jelas dari konteks, misal nomor halaman di pojok kertas. Bentuknya dapat dilihat sebagaimana berikut:[11][12]

Tanda baca
[sunting | sunting sumber]Teks tradisional Sunda ditulis tanpa spasi antarkata (scriptio continua) dan memiliki sejumlah tanda baca yang disebut pada (ꦥꦢ). Bentuknya sebagaimana berikut:
lingsa | lungsi | adeg | adeg-adeg | pisèlèh | rerenggan | pangkat | rangkap | surat | koreksi | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
andhap | madya | luhur | guru | pancak | tirta tumètès | isèn-isèn | ||||||||

![]() ꧋꧆꧋ |
![]() ꧉꧆꧉ |
![]() ꧞꧞꧞ |
![]() ꧟꧟꧟ |
Dalam pengajaran modern, tanda baca yang paling sering digunakan adalah pada adeg-adeg, pada lingsa, dan pada lungsi, yang masing-masing berfungsi untuk membuka paragraf (sebagaimana pillcrow), memisahkan kalimat (sebagaimana koma), dan mengakhiri kalimat (sebagaimana titik). Pada adeg dan pada pisèlèh umumnya digunakan untuk mengapit sisipan di tengah teks seperti kurung atau petik, sementara pada pangkat berfungsi seperti titik dua. Pada rangkap kadang digunakan sebagai tanda pengulangan kata yang dalam bahasa Indonesia informal setara dengan penggunaan angka 2 untuk kata berulang (misal kata-kata ꦏꦠꦏꦠ → kata2 ꦏꦠꧏ).[13]
Beberapa tanda baca tidak memiliki ekivalen dalam ejaan latin dan sering kali bersifat dekoratif, karena itu bentuk dan penggunaannya cenderung bervariasi antarpenulis, semisal rerenggan yang kadang digunakan untuk mengapit judul. Dalam surat-menyurat, seperangkat tanda baca digunakan di awal surat sebagai tanda pembuka dan kadang digunakan pula sebagai penanda status sosial dari sang pengirim surat; dari pada andhap yang rendah, pada madya yang menengah, hingga pada luhur yang tinggi. Pada guru kadang digunakan sebagai pilihan netral yang tidak memiliki konotasi sosial, sementara pada pancak digunakan untuk mengakhiri surat. Namun perlu diperhatikan bahwa bentuk dan fungsi ini merupakan kaidah yang digeneralisasi. Sebagaimana rerenggan, tanda baca pemulai dan pengakhir surat dalam prakteknya bersifat dekoratif dan opsional, dengan beragam susunan bentuk yang bervariasi antara daerah dan juru tulis.[13]
Ketika terjadi kesalahan dalam penulisan naskah, beberapa juru tulis keraton menggunakan tanda koreksi khusus alih-alih mencoret bagian yang salah: tirta tumétès yang ditemukan di naskah-naskah Yogyakarta, dan isèn-isèn yang ditemukan di naskah Surakarta. Tanda koreksi ini langsung dibubuhkan mengikuti bagian yang salah sebelum penulis melanjutkan dengan penulisan yang benar. Semisal seorang juru tulis ingin menulis pada luhur ꦥꦢꦭꦸꦲꦸꦂ namun terlanjur menulis pada hu ꦥꦢꦲꦸ sebelum ia sadar kesalahannya, maka kata ini dapat dikoreksi menjadi pada hu···luhur ꦥꦢꦲꦸ꧞꧞꧞ꦭꦸꦲꦸꦂ atau ꦥꦢꦲꦸ꧟꧟꧟ꦭꦸꦲꦸꦂ.[14]
Pepadan
[sunting | sunting sumber]Selain tanda baca biasa, salah satu ciri khas penulis aksara Sunda adalah pepadan (ꦥꦼꦥꦢꦤ꧀), yakni seperangkat tanda baca penanda sajak yang bentuk dan pengerjaannya sering kali memiliki nilai artisik tinggi. Beberapa bentuknya dapat dilihat sebagaimana berikut:
pada kecil | pada besar | |||

Perangkat tanda baca pepadan dapat dikenal dengan berbagai nama dalam teks-teks tradisional. Behrend (1996) membagi pepadan ke dalam dua kelompok umum: pada kecil yang merupakan tanda baca tunggal, serta pada besar yang sering kali disusun berderet dari beberapa tanda baca. Pada kecil digunakan untuk menandakan pergantian bait yang biasanya muncul setiap 32 hingga 48 suku kata tergantung metrum yang digunakan. Pada besar digunakan untuk menandakan pergantian tembang (diikuti pula oleh metrum, irama, dan citra pelantunan) yang biasanya muncul tiap 5 hingga 10 halaman, meski hal ini sangat tergantung dari susunan naskah yang bersangkutan.[15] Pedoman penulisan aksara Sunda sering kali membagi pada besar menjadi tiga jenis pada, purwa pada ꧅ ꦧ꧀ꦖ ꧅ yang digunakan di awal tembang pertama, madya pada ꧅ ꦟ꧀ꦢꦿ ꧅ yang digunakan di pergantian tembang, dan wasana pada ꧅ ꦆ ꧅ yang digunakan di penutup tembang terakhir.[13] Namun karena bentuknya yang sangat bervariasi antarnaskah, tiga tanda baca ini sering kali melebur dan dianggap satu dalam praktek penulisan sebagian besar naskah Sunda.[16]
Pepadan merupakan elemen aksara yang paling menonjol dalam naskah Sunda dan hampir selalu ditulis dengan kemampuan artisik tinggi yang meliputi kaligrafi, pewarnaan, hingga penyepuhan dengan kertas emas.[17] Dalam sejumlah naskah mewah, bentuk pepadan bahkan bisa menjadi petunjuk untuk tembang yang digunakan; pepadan dengan elemen sayap atau figur burung yang menyerupai gagak (dhandhang dalam bahasa Sunda) merujuk pada tembang dhandhanggula, sementara pepadan dengan elemen ikan mas merujuk pada tembang maskumambang (secara harfiah berarti "emas mengambang di air"). Salah satu pusat penulisan naskah dengan gubahan pepadan yang paling indah adalah skriptorium Kadipaten Pakualaman di Yogyakarta.[16][18]
Pengurutan
[sunting | sunting sumber]Aksara Sunda modern umum diurutkan menggunakan deret Hanacaraka yang dinamakan berdasarkan lima aksara pertama dalam deret tersebut.[a] Dalam urutan tersebut, ke-20 aksara dasar yang digunakan dalam bahasa Sunda modern membentuk sebuah pangram yang sering kali dikaitkan dengan legenda Aji Saka.[19][20] Asal-usul deret ini tidak diketahui dengan pasti, tetapi deret Hanacaraka diperkirakan telah digunakan oleh masyarakat Sunda setidaknya sejak abad ke-15 ketika ranah Sunda mulai menerima pengaruh Islam yang signifikan.[21][22] Terdapat berbagai macam tafsiran mengenai makna filosofis dan esoteris yang konon terkandung dalam urutan hanacaraka.[23][24]

Deret hanacaraka bukanlah satu-satunya cara untuk mengurutkan aksara Sunda. Untuk penulisan bahasa Sanskerta dan Kawi yang memerlukan 33 aksara dasar, aksara Sunda dapat diurutkan berdasarkan tempat pelafalannya (warga) menurut prinsip fonologi Sanskerta yang pertama kali dijabarkan oleh Pāṇini.[3][21] Deret ini, yang kadang disebut deret Kaganga berdasarkan tiga aksara pertamanya, merupakan deret standar dalam aksara-aksara turunan Brahmi yang masih bisa digunakan untuk menulis bahasa Sanskerta, seperti aksara Dewanagari, Tamil, dan Khmer.

Perbandingan dengan variasi Baku
[sunting | sunting sumber]Kerabat paling dekat dari aksara Sunda adalah aksara Sunda. Sebagai keturunan langsung aksara Kawi, aksara Sunda dan Sunda masih memiliki banyak kesamaan dari segi struktur dasar masing-masing huruf. Salah satu perbedaan mencolok antara aksara Sunda dan Sunda adalah sistem tata tulis; Tata tulis Sunda cenderung bersifat konservatif dan mempertahankan banyak aspek dari ejaan Kawi yang tidak lagi digunakan dalam aksara Sunda. Sebagai contoh, kata desa dalam aksara Sunda kini ditulis ꦢꦺꦱ. Dalam tata tulis Sunda kontemporer, ejaan ini dianggap sebagai ejaan kasar atau kurang tepat, karena desa merupakan kosakata serapan Sanskerta yang seharusnya dieja sesuai pengucapan Sanskerta aslinya: deśa ꦢꦺꦯ, menggunakan aksara sa murda alih-alih aksara sa nglegena. Seperti bahasa Sunda, bahasa Sunda juga tidak lagi membedakan pelafalan seluruh aksara dalam deret Sanskerta-Kawi, termasuk antara sa nglegena dan sa murda, tetapi ejaan asli selalu dipertahankan kapan pun memungkinkan. Salah satu alasannya agar sejumlah kata serapan dari bahasa Sanskerta-Kawi yang bunyinya sama dalam bahasa Sunda dapat tetap dibedakan dalam tulisan, misal antara kata pada (ꦥꦢ, tanah/bumi), pāda (ꦥꦴꦢ, kaki), dan padha (ꦥꦣ, sama), serta antara kata asta (ꦲꦱ꧀ꦠ, adalah), astha (ꦲꦱ꧀ꦡ, tulang), dan aṣṭa (ꦄꦰ꧀ꦛ, delapan).[28][29][30]
Perbandingan bentuk kedua aksara tersebut dapat dilihat sebagaimana berikut:
