广州方音的共时差异及其研究

Synchronic Difference in Cantonese Dialects And its Research

以前各方言著作所论及的“广州话”,其语音部分都是以广州市区所通行的语音为标准。近几年来,香港(包括澳门)和广州市的各种交往在不断增多,两地通行的广州话的相互影响在不断增大。现时的广州话语音应以广州和香港两地通行的广州话语音为代表。广州方音主要存在着八个方面的共时差异,而这里差异叉集中在声母和声调方面。这些共时差异的性质,有的是属于音系和音位问题;有的是属于声韵配合和音节的问题;有的是属于音位的条件变体和音素的音质问题。

In the previous academic works on dialects, what has been called 'Cantonese' usually establishes its norm in the current pronunciation in the urbandistrict of Guangzhou. However, in the recent years, contacts and communica toins of various kinds between Guangzhou and Hong Kong (including Macao) are getting increasingly frequent, which inevitably lead to daily growing interactions between the two Cantonese dialects spoken in the two areas. Therefore, the phonetic standard of Cantonese today should be the common-core Cantonese of the two.On the phonetic level of Cantonese dialects there are chiefly eight synchronic differences. which are especially manifest in the aspects of initals and tones.Some of these synchronic differences are on the level of phonetic system or that of phoneme; some concern the combination of inital with final; and the others are related with allophones or the quality of phones.
