也谈闽语全浊声母的送气现象

A Discussion of Aspiration of Voiced Initials in Min Dialects

闽语全浊声母清化后多数字不论平仄都不送气,少数字不论平仄都送气。不论平仄都送气的这些字,其送气成分由来已久。它来源于赣语向闽语直接的渗透,而不是闽语自身演化的结果。

In Min dialects, most of the voiced initials are aspirated while a handful of voiced initials unaspirated, regardless of the even tone or the oblique tones. The aspirated feature in Min dialects has long history, and results from Gan dialects directly, but not from inner evolution by Min dialects itself.
