The data presented here are the variety spoken in Luang Namtha province of northwestern Laos, and focuses on a synchronic description of the fundamentals of the Sida phonological systems. Several issues of diachronic interest are also discussed in the context of the diversity of the Southern Loloish group of languages, many of which are spoken in Laos and have not yet been described in detail. Keywords: Sida, Loloish, phonology, Laos ISO 639-3 codes: slt 1 Introduction This paper provides a first overview of the phonology of the Sida language [ISO: slt], a Tibeto-Burman language spoken in Northern Laos and Northern Vietnam. The data presented here are representative of one dialect spoken in Luang Namtha province of Laos. 1.1 The Sida language and its speakers According to the 2015 census of Laos, there are 3,151 ethnic Sida people in Laos, and it is believed that all speak the Sida language. There are Sida speakers in Vietnam as well, and the total of speakers in both countries has been estimated at around 3,900 (Lewis 2014).

  • Sanie and Language Loss in China*
    Sanie and language loss in China* DAVID BRADLEY Abstract Most of the many languages spoken by the large and widely distributed Yi nationality in China are endangered. One such is Sanie, spoken by about 8,000 people from a group of over 17,000 near Kunming in Yunnan. In surveying the area around Kuming, we located Sanie and a number of other undescribed and in most cases unreported endangered languages. Sanie is remarkable in that in some dialects it preserves velar plus /w/ clusters which have been simplified in all other closely related languages. Such a cluster is found in the group name; this gives us a clearer understanding of the original autonym for the Yi languages as a whole. Therefore, the new name Ngwi for this group of languages is proposed, with etymological justi- fications. Sanie also has a large range of internal di¤erences, suggesting that processes of change are speeded up during the process of language death. However it is shown to be a typical Eastern Yi language, like several of the other endangered languages spoken around Kunming including Sa- mataw and Samei. 1. The Yi nationality1 The Yi are one of China’s 55 minority nationalities, with a population of nearly eight million. They live in the southwest of the country; especially in Yunnan, southwestern Sichuan and western Guizhou Provinces, with a few also in western Guangxi. There are a couple of groups within Yi in south central Yunnan who also spread into northern Vietnam, and one into northeastern Laos. They are extremely heterogeneous but classified together by the Chinese.

  • A Phonological Sketch of Akha Buli --- a Lolo-Burmese Language of Muang Sing, Laos
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Kobe City University of Foreign Studies Institutional Repository ⚄ᡞᕷእᅜㄒ኱Ꮫ እᅜᏛ◊✲ ࢔ࢪ࢔ゝㄒㄽྀ A Phonological Sketch of Akha Buli --- A Lolo-Burmese language of Muang Sing, Laos --- HAYASHI Norihiko 1. Introduction The Akha language is a member of the Akoid languages of the Lolo (Yipho)-Burmese branch of Tibeto-Burman linguistic stock (Bradley 1997). It is spoken widely across Mainland Southeast Asia, in areas such as Yunnan Province of China, Northern Thailand, Northern Burma/Myanmar, Northern Laos, and Northern Vietnam. Hansson (2003: 236) states that there are approximately 250,000 in China, 45,000 in Thailand, 200,000 in Burma/Myanmar, 100,000 in Laos, and 7,000 in Vietnam, though population figures are not reliable. The Akha language has many linguistic varieties, like Akha Chicho, Akha Chepya, Akha Ulo, etc. This paper utilizes first-hand data1 to illustrate the basic phonology and lexicon of Akha Buli (Puli),2 which is an Akha variety spoken at Phabaad Noy Village in the district of Muang Sing in Luang Namtha Province, Laos (see Map 1). An orientation to the paper follows. Section 2 introduces previous studies on the Akha Buli language. Sections 3 to 6 describe the synchronic phonology of this language, whereby Section 3 deals with syllable structure, Section 4 illustrates the consonants, Section 5 presents the vowels, and Section 6 outlines the tones. Finally, Section 7 concludes this paper. Moreover, a basic word list is added as Appendix at the last part of this paper.

  • Everyday Information Practices of Ethnic Minorities with Small Populations in Yunnan, China
    Malaysian Journal of Library & Information Science, Vol. 26, no. 1, April 2021: 1-15 Everyday information practices of ethnic minorities with small populations in Yunnan, China Ming Zhu* and Xizhu Liao School of History and Archive, 2 Cuihu N Rd, Kunming, Yunnan University, 650106, CHINA e-mail: *[email protected] (corresponding author); [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper explores the everyday information practices of ethnic minorities with small populations (EMSP) to identify the conditions that affect their information practices within the context of Chinese culture. A qualitative study was conducted with China’s ethnic minorities, and data were collected through in-depth interviews and observations involving 45 participants. The data were statistically analyzed and processed using three levels of qualitative data coding analysis to identify the conditions that affect their everyday information practices. Findings show that the information needs of EMSP in China are relatively centralized, their sources of information acquisition are relatively fixed, and they do not cross ethnic group boundaries to share information with the outside world. In addition, traditions, customs, lifestyle, and ethnic identity are the conditions that influenced their everyday information practices. These results further the understanding of ethnic characteristics and traditional culture as conditions that can influence everyday information practices. Keywords: Ethnic minorities; Small populations; Everyday information practice; Information needs; Information behaviour. INTRODUCTION Information technologies and theoretical guidance both play important roles in social inclusion and integration for marginalized and minority populations in modern society. Interdisciplinary researchers from library and information science (LIS), sociology, and communication have been investigating how information-seeking, distribution, and use can offset the digital divide and exclusion of underserved and marginalized social groups.

Grammatical Phenomena of Sino-Tibetan Languages 4: 1–23, 2021 Link Languages and Archetypes in Tibeto-Burman Notes on the Phonological Development of Menglun Akeu* Hayashi Norihiko Kobe City University of Foreign Studies Summary This paper attempts to investigate the phonological development of Menglun Akeu, a lesser-known Tibeto-Burman language spoken in Mengla County of Yunnan Province of China. Using the author’s firsthand data of Menglun Akeu and two related languages (Akha Buli and Youle Jino), both segments and suprasegments of the language are com- pared with those of written Burmese and the proto languages reconstructed by David Bradley and James A. Matisoff. The stop and affricate onsets in Menglun Akeu mostly preserve the VOT system of the Proto-Loloish or the Proto-Lolo-Burmese, whereas the fricative in Menglun Akeu corre- sponds to Lolo-Burmese languages in a complicated manner. The medial /-j-/ can be pre- ceded by the velar onsets (/k-, g-/) in Menglun Akeu, which in some cases (‘to steal’ and ‘nine’) corresponds only to Youle Jino in the dataset of this paper. Syllabic nasal /n/ can be found in Menglun Akeu, which is the outcome of deleting the rime. The rime correspondence between Menglun Akeu and other Lolo-Burmese is complex, although there are a few corresponding rules [Menglun Akeu: Proto-Loloish = -i: *-ey/ *-i, -ɛ: -*am, -a: *-a, -u: *-u, etc.].
