Ebook: Dialectology As Dialectic: Interpreting Phula Variation (Trends in Linguistics, Studies and Monographs, No. 229)

Undertaking a broadscale experiment in theory and praxis, this book demonstrates grounds for insisting on a more integrational approach to dialectology while simultaneously demonstrating grounds for defining the hidden Phula languages of the Sino-Vietnam borderlands. The modern languages and their ancestral lineage are defined dialectically, through dynamic syntheses of correlative perspectives.
