The Structural Design of Language

By Thomas S. Stroik, Michael T. Putnam

In this book, Stroik and Putnam take on Turing's challenge. They argue that the narrow syntax – the lexicon, the Numeration, and the computational system – must reside, for reasons of conceptual necessity, within the performance systems.

Taiwanese (Min dialect)


I am beginning a thesis which is going to be a phonetic analysis of
Taiwanese (NOT Taiwan Mandarin). What I have in mind is going to do a
detailed analysis of the vowel and tonal system of the
dialect. Unfortunatly, all the information and references that I have
got so far are solely on tone. I in fact quite desparately need to
know where the reference(s) of Taiwanese phonology can be found and
obtained. Taiwanese is a Min dialect which phonological system should
be highly similar to Amoy spoken in Hsia Men on the South coast of
Mainland China. If there is sufficient responses, a reference list
will be complied and posted on the Linguist List.

Thank you.
