Abstract

Tone sandhi has always been a popular topic in phonology and phonetics. The most studied type of tone sandhi is the 3rd tone sandhi. Previous researchers showed that tone sandhi patterns are different in different dialects, and dialects in the same region share similar patterns. However, few comparative studies have been done. The paper aims to compare the production of 3rd tone sandhi in Bayannur dialect and Haikou dialect. In this paper, the author focuses on three types of 3rd tone sandhi. The pronunciations were obtained from real recordings of native speakers. Besides, Mandarin was recorded as a control group. These recordings were carefully listened to and analyzed. The results show that Bayannur dialect has more similar patterns of tone sandhi with Mandarin than Haikou dialect; half-dipping tones and T1 occur more frequently in T3 disyllabic words in Haikou dialect; both dialects shift the final T3 in reiterative locutions to T2.
