Nantong Chinese is an in-depth account of an interesting and
endangered Sinitic language spoken in Nantong, China, in an area in
the Northern Yangtze River Delta about 800 square kilometers in
size and 105 kilometers northwest of the city of Shanghai. The
Chinese language consists of several hundred local varieties known
as Sinitic languages or Chinese dialects, each representing a
unique linguistic system. This book offers a comprehensive and
systematic insight into one such system that is even more complex
and more interesting than standard Mandarin. The unique
vocalization and other linguistic features of Nantong Chinese make
it unintelligible to most Chinese people. All the important
linguistic aspects of Nantong Chinese are covered, including its
phonetic, lexical, morphological and syntactic subsystems. Nantong
Chinese will be of interest to professionals and students in
linguistics worldwide.
