In providing an analysis of the grammar of the dialect of seven
counties along the Yellow River, this two-volume set synchronically
and diachronically studies the Jin dialect of China's Northern
Shaanxi Province. The Jin dialect of Northern Shaanxi is one of the
most ancient, complicated, and representative dialects of the
Yellow River region and figures prominently in our understanding of
the Jin dialect and northern Chinese dialects as a whole. The first
volume focuses on pronouns, aspect and appearance and tenses; while
the second volume focuses on aspects including the subjunctive
mood, expressions of complex sentence relationships, embedded
sentence patterns, complex interrogative sentences, the formation
of the imperative modal particle "zhe", and the phonetic variation
of grammatical constituents. Hence, the book gives insight into the
peculiarity of the Jin dialect in terms of grammar, the significant
role of diachronic comparative studies of dialectal grammar, and
the grammar characteristics of Chinese as a whole. The book will be
a useful reference for scholars and students interested in the Jin
dialect, Chinese dialects in general and Chinese linguistics.
