Dear linguistlisters,
I have two questions on the typology of tonal systems: 1) Are there tonal systems limited to the three following units: two level tones (H and L) and only one contour tone? 2) If such systems exist, is the shape of this unique contour predictable? Is it a falling or a rising tone? Thanks in advance for any piece of information. I will post a summary if there are enough responses.
