This book conducts a thorough investigation of the variation in
tone sandhi patterns of Shanghai and Wuxi Wu using quantitative
rating experiments. Although Shanghai Wu has been well documented,
to date there has never been any quantitative study that
systematically investigates the factors that influence variability
- a research gap this book fills. Further, Wuxi Wu is investigated
as an additional case that demonstrates the unique phonological
nature of tone sandhi, and how it changes how speakers learn and
internalize the variable tone sandhi pattern. The findings
presented here will shed new light on important issues of wordhood,
the interface of morphosyntax and phonology, and the formal model
of variability in phonology.
