[Tibeto-burman-linguistics] Culture in language (Mijke Mulder)

[Mijke Mulder]

Hi Mark,

There's this article on the effect of an environmental factor, humidity, on
tone. It's not discussing TB/TH languages in particular though. I'm adding
an example of a critical response to go along with it:

Everett, C., Blasi, D.E., Roberts, S.G. (2015). Climate, vocal folds, and
tonal languages: Connecting the physiological and geographic dots. PNAS
112(5), pp. 1322–1327.

Collins, J. (2016). Commentary: The role of language contact in creating
correlations between humidity and tone. Journal of Language Evolution 1(1),
pp. 46-52.


All the best,

Mijke Mulder
