William J. Gedney's Comparative Tai Source Book
By Thomas John Hudak

This volume provides accurate and reliable data from 1,159
common cognates found in 19 dialects from the Tai language
family. Originally collected by noted Tai linguist, the late
William J. Gedney, the data are organized into the three
branches of the Tai language family, the Southwestern, the
Central, and the Northern, to facilitate comparisons among the
various sound systems within the individual branches and
within the Tai language family as a whole.
