It is well known that Chinese is a monosyllable based tone language, but in Guanhua and Wu dialects the interaction of stress accent and tone has given birth to the word tone, which is synchronically predictable either by the tone of the first syllable or that of the last syllable within a polysyllabic phonological word.In the present research, phonetic characteristics of the word tone are investigated mainly by experimental techniques. Acoustic measurements were made on tens of Guanhua and Wu dialects ; articulatory EMA experiments were conducted on the Standard Bejing Mandarin. These data were analyzed and examined with reference to the data obtained by the physiological EMG experiment.It is argued that the "word tone" theory proposed by T.Hayata is effective in analyzing the tonal and accentual phenomena observable in Chinese dialects. Some theoretical issues were discussed in historical perspectives ; development of stress accent, emergence of the accentual phenomena, differentiation of the word tone category disappearance of stress accent and loss of the morphemic identity.

汉语是单音节声调语言，但官话和吴语的重音和声调相互作用，产生了声调一词。声调一词在共时上可由多音节音系词的首音节声调或末音节声调预测。对官话和吴语的几十个方言进行了声学测量，对北京普通话进行了发音EMA实验。通过对这些数据的分析，并与生理肌电实验数据进行比较，认为T.Hayata提出的“字调”理论对分析汉语方言中的声调和重音现象是有效的。从历史的角度探讨了重音的发展、重音现象的出现、声调范畴的分化、重音的消失和语素同一性的丧失等理论问题。
