The relationship among tones, intonation and sentence-final particles was first studied by Feng Shengli in 2015, in which Feng put forward the Intonation-Particle Hypothesis (I-P Hypothesis). This book interprets and verifies the I-P Hypothesis from several aspects. First, in the part of theoretical foundation, this book introduces in detail what is I-P Hypothesis and the interdependence and interaction among tones, intonation and sentence-final particles; second, in the part of empirical demonstration, this book verifies the I-P Hypothesis based on ancient Chinese, Chinese ethnic minority languages, and the Bantu languages in Africa. The I-P Hypothesis will have (or have already had) significant influence on the studies of the history of Chinese language and syntax, and the appearance of sentence-final particles will become an important mark for observing the evolution of language types.

汉语韵律语法丛书 声调、语调与句末语气词研究
冯胜利（2015）首次研究了声调、语调与句末语气词三者之间的关系，提出了I-P假说（Intonation-Particle Hypothesis），本书从多个角度对I-P假说进行了阐释与验证。首先是理论基础部分，本书详细介绍了何谓I-P假说，以及声调、语调与句末语气词之间相生和互动的关系。其次是语言实证部分，本书从古代汉语、中国的少数民族语言和非洲班图语系诸语言等角度对I-P假说进行了论证。I-P假说的提出对汉语史和句法学两大领域均将（或已然）产生重大影响，句末语气词的出现也将成为观察语言类型演变的一个重要标志。
