abstract = {There are three possible ways to account for the Austronesian look-alikes in Tai-Kadai: common inheritance, that is, the two languages families are genetically related; language contact, that is, the forms were borrowed into Tai-Kadai from Austronesian; and, chance, that is, the forms are merely look-alikes and nothing more. The evidence provided by recent reconstructions of various subgroups of Tai-Kadai shows that the Tai-Kadai forms are neither inherited on the one hand nor mere look-alikes on the other. Further, the reconstructions and the subgrouping evidence show that the bulk of the Tai-Kadai borrowing was from an early (pre-)Austronesian source and that the contact occurred in southwestern China and predated the Austronesian movement out onto the islands.},
