More about the book

Focusing on the Tangwang language, this book presents the first comprehensive English grammar, detailing its phonology, morphology, and syntax. It addresses a significant gap in existing literature, which previously had limited resources. Utilizing an interdisciplinary approach, the study explores genetic data for historical migration patterns and examines the influence of the Dongxiang language due to Silk Road interactions. The conclusion posits that Tangwang remains distinct, highlighting the predominance of syntactic borrowing over lexical borrowing in language contact scenarios.
