| Tóm tắt: | This new interpretation of the early history of Chinese argues that Old Chinese was typologically a "mixed" language. It shows that, though its dominant word order was subject-verb-object, this coexisted with subject-object-verb.

She focusses on syntactic issues, but pays close attention to closely related changes in phonology and the writing system |
