Hongming Zhang is a leading expert on tone sandhi, and this book is the culmination of a lifetime’s research.
Syntax-Phonology Interface: Argumentation from Tone Sandhi in Chinese Dialects examines the phonology-syntax interface and the related prosodic hierarchy based on tone sandhi (TS) in Chinese dialects. This book, one of the key volumes in the series 'Routledge Studies in Chinese Linguistics', analyzes rich data on TS in various Chinese dialects to reveal the organization of phonological components, to specify the syntactic properties that affect the application of phonological rules, and to demonstrate the incorporation of those syntactic properties into phonology.... In a word, this book takes a lead in exploring the syntax-phonology interface issues based on Chinese TS phenomena. It definitely will become a valuable resource for graduate students, researchers, and scholars interested in exploring linguistics and Chinese. -- Chen Ou (Zhejiang University), Lingua, Volume 242, July 2020, 102856 Syntax-Phonology Interface: Argumentation from Tone Sandhi in Chinese Dialects , : ? ? ? , , , , , , , , , -- , , 19 2017 4 622-629 , (Yuxia Yin, Tianjin Normal University, Contemporary Linguistics, Volume 19, No. 4, 2017, Pp. 622-629)
