This book studies the Tangwang language, providing the first
comprehensive grammar in English of this Chinese variety, with
detailed analysis of its phonology, morphology, and syntax. This
fills a gap in the literature, as previously only a few articles on
this language were available. The book takes an interdisciplinary
approach, examining genetic data to determine historical patterns
of population migration, as well as linguistic data that focus on
the influence of the Dongxiang (Santa) language as a consequence of
language contact on the Silk Road. The concluding chapter argues
that Tangwang has not yet become a mixed language, and that
syntactic borrowing has a stronger impact than lexical borrowing on
languages.
