Contents:
Frontmatter -- Preface -- Table of contents -- Introduction -- I. Phonology/Phonetics -- 1. The cross-dialectal perception of Vietnamese tones: Indexicality and convergence -- 2. Prosodic means in repair initiation as an activity in Northern Vietnamese conversation -- II. Noun phrase syntax -- 3. The Vietnamese noun phrase -- 4. Vietnamese classifier phrases from the perspective of how children acquire them -- III. Clausal and verb phrase syntax -- 5. Head-First: On the head-initiality of Vietnamese clauses -- 6. Vietnamese and the typology of passive constructions -- 7. Serial verbs and change of location constructions in Vietnamese -- IV. Pronouns and minor word classes -- 8. Wh-phrases as indefinites: A Vietnamese perspective -- 9. On conjunction and comitativity in Vietnamese -- 10. Focus particles and related entities in Vietnamese -- Index
Summary: The present collection of articles grew out of a workshop on Vietnamese linguistics in 2009 at the University of Stuttgart, Germany. To our knowledge, no workshop with a comparable scope has been held outside of Vietnam for the past 20 years, or even longer. Given the important typological status of Vietnamese as a paradigm case of an isolating language, the volume covers the most relevant fields in linguistics: syntax, semantics, phonology, and the lexicon. A guiding principle in assembling the chapters for this volume has been to take an inclusive stance as far as the commitment to different frameworks and research methodologies is concerned. All the contributors are proponents of recent developments in their individual areas of specialization. The editors have taken special care to cater for a readership which should be as broad as possible. This means that each contribution is self-contained and does not presuppose any knowledge of Vietnamese. The volume is recommended to general linguistis, comparative linguists, typologists and to researchers specializing in languages of East and South East Asia.
