'''Hoklo Taiwanese''' or '''Holo people''' ({{lang-zh|t= |
'''Hoklo Taiwanese''', also referred to locally as the '''Taiwanese''' ({{lang-zh|t=臺灣人/台員人|poj=Tâi-oân-lâng|labels=no}}){{Cite journal |last=Wu|first=Chun-Ying|date=2021|title=Hoklo speakers and Taiwanese identity in south Taiwan|url=https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/aspp.12570|journal=Asian Politics & Policy (APP) |volume=13|issue=1|pages=150–164}} or '''Holo people''' ({{lang-zh|t=福佬人/鶴老人/河洛人|poj=Ho̍h-ló-lâng|labels=no}}){{sfnp|Exec. Yuan|2014|p=36}}, are a major [[ethnic group]] in Taiwan whose ancestry is wholly or partially [[Hoklo people|Hoklo]], with [[Hokkien]] as their native language. Being Taiwanese of [[Han Taiwanese|Han]] origin, their mother tongue is Taiwanese ({{lang|nan-Latn|Tâi-oân-ōe}} or {{lang|nan-Latn|Tâi-gí}}), also known as [[Taiwanese Hokkien]]. After [[World War II]] and the [[Retrocession of Taiwan]], most Hoklo Taiwanese also became fluent in [[Taiwanese Mandarin]] as a result of the [[Republic of China]] (ROC) national language policy. |

The majority trace their roots to the Hoklo communities of modern [[Quanzhou]] and [[Zhangzhou]] in [[Southern Fujian]], [[China]], whose ancestors migrated to Taiwan from the [[17th century]] beginning with early movements encouraged under [[Dutch Formosa|Dutch colonial]] rule. In common usage, a Hoklo Taiwanese identity refers to those whose families settled on the island before the mid twentieth century, a group also described as ''[[benshengren]]'' when considered together with other early Chinese settlers. Even so, most Hoklo Taiwanese simply identify themselves as [[Taiwanese people|Taiwanese]]. |
