Graham Thurgood (Chinese: 杜冠明; pinyin: Dù Guānmíng) is a retired professor of linguistics at California State University, Chico.[1]
Thurgood graduated with a Ph.D. in linguistics from University of California, Berkeley, where he studied under James Matisoff.
Thurgood's areas of specialization include tonogenesis, historical linguistics, language contact, and second language acquisition.[2] Thurgood has reconstructed Chamic (Austronesian), the Hlai languages (Kra-Dai and Kam-Sui), and parts of Tibeto-Burman (Sino-Tibetan).
Thurgood's tone work includes the reconstruction of tone in Chamic, internal reconstruction of tone in Jiamao, and a substantial article on tonogenesis in general.
