More about the book

Focusing on the Tangwang language, this book presents the first comprehensive grammar in English, covering phonology, morphology, and syntax. It addresses a significant gap in existing literature, previously limited to a few articles. Employing an interdisciplinary approach, the study analyzes genetic data for historical migration patterns and linguistic influences from the Dongxiang language due to Silk Road interactions. The conclusion posits that Tangwang remains a distinct language, emphasizing the greater impact of syntactic borrowing over lexical borrowing.
