The Structure of Tone
Bao, Zhiming (Senior Lecturer, Department of English Language and Literature, Senior Lecturer, Department of English Language and Literature, National University of Singapore)
Bao presents a theory of tone which supports the typological distinction between African-type tone languages and Asian-type tone languages. He argues for a novel structure of tone, and supports it with data from Chinese dialects and other Asian languages. It will be of interest to phonologists and linguists interested in Chinese.
