It argues that in final-prominent tone sandhi, the change of final tones and the change of non-final tones can be highly independent and essentially different from each other. Accordingly, it proposes a new position-based diachronic approach to study the separate evolution of tones occurring at different positions. This book is the first study to rigorously and systematically explore the diachrony of Southern Min tone sandhi.Frontiers in Chinese Linguistics,2522-5308 ;6LinguisticsChinese languageHistorical Linguisticshttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/N26000Theoretical Linguisticshttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/N46000Chinesehttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/N18000Linguistics.Chinese language.Historical Linguistics.Theoretical Linguistics.Chinese.495.115Lin Qingauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1059956BOOK9910350286403321The Diachrony of Tone Sandhi2509804UNINA
