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.
