Subject: Sichuan Yi
I'm looking for information on the phonology of Sichuan/liangshan Yi. I'm
specifically interested in the IPA of the language; is there an accepted
standard IPA or just individual interpretations?
I'm also looking for any digital recording files of the language that
someone could send to my computer.
I've been compiling a swadish list for this language and have run into
disagreements between sources on words usually a vs. ax or e vs. yi. if
anyone has an explaination for this I would be interested.
I'm really interested in this language and would just like to learn all I
can about it, in all fields not only phonology.
thank you
mike
