Abstract This paper aims at phonological strata of Kai-kou-hu in Zhi She and Xie She cognates in Chu-qu subgroup of the Wu dialect. In the first, we establish several phonological distinctions of correspondence rules which are based on the “vocabulary-sounds” of the comparative method. Second, we clarify strata with confining correspondences through different phonological characteristics. Finally, we discuss the probable historical origin of each stratum. The conclusion is that there are four correspondences and three strata of Kai-kou-hu in Zhi She and Xie She cognates in Chu-qu subgroup of the Wu dialect.
