The Raoyang dialect in Hebei Province displays four basic tone sandhi patterns, distinguishing fromeach other in terms of their triggers, targets and results. Moreover, these patterns can interact with one anotheryielding a higher degree of tonal complexity. This article first provides a thorough description of these patterns, andthen undertakes a formal analysis of the tonal interactions grounded on the ordered derivation hypothesis in the rulebased theory of generative phonology. The tone sandhi rules are found to apply in a specifc order, which shouldconstitute a part of the tonal knowledge native speakers operate with, Raoyang tone sandhi is of some value for thetheory ofLexical Phonology, for which ordered derivation serves as a basic tenet.
