Description

Explore the unique linguistic landscape of the Northern Yangtze River Delta with Nantong Chinese. Part of the Routledge Studies in Chinese Linguistics series, this book provides a detailed account of an endangered Sinitic language spoken in the Nantong region of China. Located approximately 105 kilometers northwest of Shanghai, this area represents a specific linguistic system within the broader Chinese language family. While many are familiar with standard Mandarin, the Chinese language actually consists of several hundred local varieties known as Sinitic languages or dialects. Each of these varieties functions as a unique linguistic system. This text offers a systematic insight into the Nantong variety, which presents a system that is even more complex and interesting than standard Mandarin. This is an essential resource for researchers, students, and anyone interested in the study of Sinitic languages and regional Chinese dialects.
