Une étude comparative de la phonologie et de la morphosyntaxe du Ridang : une langue tibétaine orientale

Year: 2024
Type: dissertation
Abstract: As delineated by Tournadre & Suzuki (2023), Tibetic languages are classified into eight distinct branches, with the Eastern branch standing out as the most intricate and varied, yet also the least explored. This dissertation centers on Ridang, a language of the Eastern Section spoken by around 5,000 people, primarily in the eastern reaches of Thebo County within the Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Gansu Province, China. Through the perspectives of historical linguistics and morphosyntactic theory, this study delves into the phonological and morphosyntactic characteristics of Ridang, while also undertaking a comparative analysis with neighboring Tibetic languages. This approach not only sheds new light on Ridang's linguistic features but also proposes a novel classification framework for the Eastern Tibetic languages.
