Language harmony means that different languages and their dialects can coexist in harmony in the same society. It is not only a linguistic issue, but also a social phenomenon. As an independent branch of language study in China, language harmony study covers the following topics: The value of language harmony, the types of language harmony, the factors that affect language harmony, the construction path of language harmony, etc. The main research methods include: case study, a combination of synchronic and diachronic research and multidisciplinary research. Statistics results of relevant studies of language harmony in China show that, in the past fifteen years, the study of language harmony in China has grown and presents the following characteristics: The results are mainly papers (206 papers) and a few monographs (6 books); the initial stage is dominated by theoretical discussions; subsequently, the case study is in a dominant position; there are more case studies than theoretical studies in total; case study results focus on a few topics; case studies are still the current focus of study; the total number of results has shown a decreasing trend after 2008. Despite these recent findings, case studies of language harmony in China lack width and profundity, and its theoretical discussion still needs to be deepened and improved.
