A Tonal Taxonomy of Chungli Ao Verbs<br />
APPENDIX B: SUMMARY TABLES<br />
The following tables summarize the tonal taxonomy of stem classes and<br />
subclasses developed for Chungli Ao verbs. Table 21 presents the tone patterns<br />
of the three classes as they pertain to bare stem, preterite, irrealis, and present<br />
verb forms. Table 22 displays the alternate stem tone patterns of each subclass<br />
under trigger-suffixation. (Periods represent syllable boundaries, while dashes<br />
indicate stem-suffix boundaries.)<br />
