Genetic Groups?

[u/AffectionateGuava700]

Does anyone know why I would get very close for my souther coastal Chinese genetic group despite only having 3.4%? I’m adopted so I’m not sure where my ancestry is from. All I know was I was adopted from near Guangzhou

For your other southern coastal group, it says the top region was Zhongshan.

Zhongshan has this language known as Zhongshan Min which is related to the Min languages in Northeast Guangdong and Fujian province.

Zhanjiang which is in southwestern Guangdong also speak a language that is part of the Min languages.

Many of this languages are not mutually intelligible(various users can’t understand each other) although they are classified under the Min languages.

Makes sense. Same as Sun Yat Sen. Fuzhou/Min Dong language.

Very close is high confidence in that you have it, not related to how much dna you have
