Abstract: In his provocative paper "Chinese and Austronesian are genetically related" (1990). the French linguist Laurent Sagart claims that no regular correspondences have been established between Chinese and Tibeto-Burman (TB). whereas unlimited numbers of cognates, showing "regular" correspondences can be established between Austronesian (AN) and Chinese. as long as one chops off the initial syllable of the AN root.
