Dear typologists,
I would appreciate it if you can suggest literature that can answer my following question:
When linguistic convergence happens due to contact, does it necessarily happen in every domain? For example, when two languages develop phonological similarity due to contact, do they also develop syntactic similarity, lexical similarity, etc.? Or is it possible for two languages to converge in one domain but not in another domain?
From Hong Kong,
Ian
