Abstract:

The Tonal Phonology of Thadou deals with the phonetics and phonology of tones
in Thadou, a Tibeto-Burman language spoken in North-East India. This book
looks into the interaction of phonological rules in the lexical and
post-lexical components with the gradient processes of phonetic implementation
modules in the grammar of a language. It reviews in detail the pitch
downtrending facets of the language. The book does not limit its scope to the
study of Thadou language, but also looks into a related language Mizo and
postulates a model of phonology which ensures that the gradient implementation
of certain phenomena in the phonetic component may be severely constrained by
the nature of the lexical and post-lexical module of the grammar of a
language.
