While some papers focus on a single dialect, including Mandarin, Min, Hakka, Cantonese, and Wu dialects, some papers involve a cross-dialectal comparison. The historical materials studied stretch back over a period of five centuries, from <em>Lijingji<\/em>, a play written by an unknown native speaker of Chinese in the Ming dynasty, to a variety of materials such as textbooks, dictionaries, collection of dialogues and Bible translations, which were compiled between the 19th century and mid-20th century by foreigners. By closely examining the historical materials of the early Chinese dialects, the papers try to trace the development of grammatical changes and explore the motivations and mechanisms behind the changes.<\/p>\n<p>This open access book is available now, please see the following link for full text download and further information.<br \/>\nLink: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ling.sinica.edu.tw\/item\/en?act=publish_book&#038;code=view&#038;bookID=142\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.ling.sinica.edu.tw\/item\/en?act=publish_book&#038;code=view&#038;bookID=142<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/newsletter.sinica.edu.tw/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2-8-748x1024.jpg\" alt=\"New publication of \u201cGrammatical Studies on Early Chinese Dialects\u201d by ILAS\" width=\"748\" height=\"1024\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-12230\" srcset=\"https:\/\/newsletter.sinica.edu.tw/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2-8-748x1024.jpg 748w, https:\/\/newsletter.sinica.edu.tw/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2-8-219x300.jpg 219w, https:\/\/newsletter.sinica.edu.tw/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2-8-768x1051.jpg 768w, https:\/\/newsletter.sinica.edu.tw/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2-8-1122x1536.jpg 1122w, https:\/\/newsletter.sinica.edu.tw/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2-8-1080x1478.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/newsletter.sinica.edu.tw/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2-8.jpg 1403w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 748px) 100vw, 748px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are proud to announce the publication of Grammatical Studies on Early Chinese Dialects (\u65e9\u671f\u6f22\u8a9e\u65b9\u8a00\u8a9e\u6cd5), edited by Dr. Min-hua Chiang, Research Fellow of ILAS and Dr. Carine Yuk-man Yiu, Associate Professor from The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.
