Like other Chinese varieties, tones in Gan make phonemic distinctions. There are five phonemic tones in Gan, which are reduced to two 'entering tones' before stop consonants. In the traditional classification, these are considered separately:

The 6th and 7th tones are the same as the 4th and 5th tones, except that the syllable ends in a stop consonant,/t/ or/k/.
