Description

This volume brings together two under-investigated areas of intonation typology. While tone languages make up to 70 percent of the world`s languages, only few have been explored for intonation. And even though one third of the world`s languages are spoken in Africa, and most sub-Saharan languages are tone languages, recent collections on tone and intonation typology have almost entirely ignored African languages. This book aims to fill this gap.
