This highly accessible introduction explores the core systems and subsystems
of the languages of mainland Southeast Asia, applying the main concepts
of language typology, phonology, morphology, syntax, sociolinguistics,
language variation, and language contact to this diverse language area.
N. J. Enfield is a leading expert in the languages of this region. Here, he draws
upon nearly a thousand data examples from over a hundred languages from
Cambodia, China, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Thailand, and Vietnam to
show the many ways in which these languages resemble each other, and differ
from each other, in the context of what is known globally about the diversity
of human language. The book highlights the diversity of the area’s languages,
with a special emphasis on the minority languages, which outnumber the
national languages by nearly a hundred to one. The result is a welcome
corrective to widespread beliefs about the nature of a ‘typical* Southeast
Asian language.
N. J. Enfield is Professor of Linguistics at The University of Sydney. He is a
leading expert on the languages of mainland Southeast Asia. His publications
include A Grammar of Lao (2007), Dynamics of Human Diversity: The Case
of Mainland Southeast Asia (2011), and Languages of Mainland Southeast
Asia: The State of the Art (2015, with Bernard Comrie). He is working on a
reference grammar of Kri, a Vietic language spoken in Laos.
“This is an extremely readable overview of mainland Southeast Asian
languages, richly illustrated with examples from both minority languages
and national languages. Enfield presents a number of areal features not
usually mentioned and corrects some common notions about the MSEA
type. His engaging discussions get to the heart of the way MSEA language
structures work.”
