About the Book

This book centers on theoretical issues of phonology-syntax interface based on tone sandhi in Chinese dialects. It uses patterns in tone sandhi to study how speech should be divided into domains of various sizes or levels. Tone sandhi refers to tonal changes that occur to a sequence of adjacent syllables or words. The size of this sequence (or the domain) is determined by various factors, in particular the syntactic structure of the words and the original tones of the words. Chinese dialects offer a rich body of data on tone sandhi, and hence great evidence for examining the phonology-syntax interface, and for examining the resulting levels of domains (the prosodic hierarchy). Syntax-Phonology Interface: Argumentation from Tone Sandhi in Chinese Dialects is an extremely valuable text for graduate students and scholars in the fields of linguistics and Chinese.

Table of Contents:
1. Background of Theoretical Issues 2. Functional Relations in Tone Sandhi 3. The C-command Condition in Phonology 4. Function Words & the Rhythmic Effect 5. Issues in Mandarin Prosodic Studies 6. Theoretical Discussions 7. Concluding Remarks

About the Author :
Hongming Zhang is a leading expert on tone sandhi, and this book is the culmination of a lifetime’s research.

Review :
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 一书以汉语方言丰富多彩的连读变调语料为例证,探讨句法与音系接口一些不可回避的关键问题:如语法的音系部分是如何组织的?哪些句法特征制约音系规则的应用?句法信息如何融人音系?该书是作者多年研究的成果,根据连读变调材料事实,以批评性眼光审视近三四十年来句法与音系接口的各种理论以及原则假设,明析短长,修订严格层级假设,提出了句法与音系接口的新模型,建立起了汉语普通话的韵律层级。这些成果极具价值,不仅对中国语言学的研究做出了贡献,而且对一般语言学理论也做出了重要贡献。它是音系与句法接口研究领域不可忽略的一部力作,是致力于汉语韵律、接口研究的学者必不可少的一本案头书。 -- 尹玉霞,天津师范大学,《当代语言学》第19卷2017年第4期622-629页,北京 (Yuxia Yin, Tianjin Normal University, Contemporary Linguistics, Volume 19, No. 4, 2017, Pp. 622-629)
