  • Linguistic constraint, social meaning, and multi-modal stylistic construction

    Open AccessY Lin, Marjorie K M ChanARTICLELanguage in Society2022Citada por: 5Referencias: 38

    While the sociolinguistic variable is often deemed the carrier of social meaning, recent work reveals that the strength of social meaning can interact with linguistic environments. This study provides additional evidence that the same sets of variants can index drastically different social meanings across linguistic environments. Specifically, we present two cases of linguistic stylization in Taiwanese singer Jay Chou's performance in different g…

  • Do Explicit Instruction and High Variability Phonetic Training Improve Nonnative Speakers’ Mandarin Tone Productions

    Open AccessSeth Wiener, Marjorie K M Chan et al.ARTICLEModern Language Journal2020

    This study examines the putative benefits of explicit phonetic instruction, high variability phonetic training, and their effects on adult nonnative speakers’ Mandarin tone productions. Monolingual first language (L1) English speakers ( n = 80), intermediate second language (L2) Mandarin learners ( n = 40), and L1 Mandarin speakers ( n = 40) took part in a multiday Mandarin‐like artificial language learning task. Participants were asked to repeat…

  • Contour-tone spreading and tone sandhi in Danyang Chinese

    Open AccessMarjorie K M ChanARTICLEPhonology1991

    An important contribution to our knowledge of tone sandhi among the Chinese dialects is Lü's (1980) article on the tones and tone sandhi behaviour of Danyang, a Wu dialect of Chinese. Lü's description of Danyang is, to date, our only source on the dialect. While it is a northern Wu dialect, the tone sandhi patterning in Danyang differs from Shanghai, Suzhou, Wuxi and other dialects in the vicinity. There are a number of interesting problems relat…

  • Prelinked and Floating Glottal Stops In Fuzhou Chinese

    Open AccessMarjorie K M ChanARTICLEThe Canadian Journal of…1990

    Numerous interesting problems in the phonology of different dialects of Chinese tend to be buried in Chinese-language sources, or have not yet gained the attention of phonologists in general. One such case is the final glottal stop in modern Fuzhou, with respect to its behaviour synchronically and its historical origins. The final glottal stop came from two earlier sources, *-k and *-?. While *-k has completely merged with *-? in stressed syllabl…

  • Chinatown Chinese

    Marjorie K M Chan, Douglas W LeeARTICLEAmerasia Journal1981Citada por: 1

    The linguistic composition and social and historical context of the Chinese language in America have been long neglected by linguists and scholars of Asian American history. Perhaps one of the earliest attempts to break into this new territory is the recent article in Amerasiu 7: 1 (1980) entitled “Chinatown Chinese: The San Francisco Dialect” by Lorraine Dong and Marlon K. Hom. This article is significant in planting seeds for future research on…
