Southern Qiang is a Sino-Tibetan language of the Qiangic branch spoken by approximately 81,300 people along the Minjiang (岷江) river in Sichuan Province, China. Unlike its close relative Northern Qiang, Southern Qiang is a tonal language. ==Southern Qiang dialects== Southern Qiang is spoken in Li County (in Taoping 桃坪, etc.), Wenchuan County (in Longxi 龙溪, Luobozhai 萝卜寨, Miansi 绵虒, etc), and parts of Mao County. It consists of seven dialects: Dajishan, Taoping, Longxi, Mianchi, Heihu, Sanlong, and Jiaochang, which are greatly divergent and are not mutually intelligible. Names seen in the older literature for Southern Qiang dialects include ''Lofuchai (Lophuchai, Lopu Chai),'' ''Wagsod (Wa-gsod, Waszu),''〔John McCoy & Timothy Light, ed., 1986, ''Contributions to Sino-Tibetan Studies,'' pp. 40, 65.〕 and ''Outside/Outer Mantse (Man-tzŭ)''.〔UC Berkeley, 1992, ''Linguistics of the Tibeto-Burman Area'', vol. 15, pp. 76–77.〕 Liu (1998) adds Sanlong (三龍) and Jiaochang (較場) to the Southern subdialects. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Southern Qiang language」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
