[Tibeto-burman-linguistics] research by Shintani Tadahiko on SE Asian languages

Wed Jan 18 21:52:38 UTC 2017

Dear All,

Hello! 

Mr. Tadahiko Shintani retired from Research Institute for Languages and Cultures
of Asia and Africa (ILCAA), Tokyo University of Foreign Studies
and is now a Professor-Emeritus, but still active in linguistic fieldwork in Mainland Southeast Asia.

His research interests were Oceanic and Miao-Yao languages,
but for these more than 20 years he has been working on Tibeto-Burman, Tai-Kadai and 
Mon-Khmer languages as well.

I think he tends to compile lexicons rather than to write papers on a specific topic,
and rarely attends at international conferences, so his work is possibly hard to be known.

He has been publishing many lexicons of the Tibeto-Burman, Tai-Kadai, Mon-Khmer languages
and is planning to do more utilizing sound files recorded in the field site by himself.
The distribution by ILCAA to the public is fairly limited in paper version and domestic,
but if you wish to get some works from ILCAA, I think you can contact directly with it though 
you may have to pay shipping fee.

Or, you can email to Mr. Shintani directly and ask him if there are other solutions.

All the best,

Norihiko
