The Syntax and Semantics of Phonological Phrasing in Shanghai and Hokkien.
Soh, Hooi Ling
Journal of East Asian Linguistics, v10 n1 p37-80 Jan 2001
It has been observed that phonological phrasing in Shanghai Chinese distinguishes certain determiners from others and wh-quantifier phrases from non-wh-quantifier phrases. This article shows that such phonological phrasing distinctions are also found in Hokkien Chinese but in a more restricted environment. (Author/VWL)
