This work is a descriptive reference grammar of Hmong, as spoken in the diaspora in North Queensland, Australia. Hmong is typologically significant given its long history of language contact and migration, first across Southeast Asia, then in the Anglophone diaspora. By far the most comprehensive work on Hmong to date, the grammar is of interest to specialists in Southeast Asian languages and to typologists.
