湘语的小称研究——兼与相关方言比较

A Study on Diminutive of Xiang Dialects

湘语的小称现象比较普遍,主要有五种类型:后附词缀型、前加准词缀型、重叠型、变调型、混合型。与相关方言比较,湘语表小称主要运用附缀型的词汇手段,少用音变型的语音手段;以后附"崽"缀及其变化形式"崽崽"、"崽唧"、"崽子"为主;前加准词缀"崽崽"、"儿儿"、""等现象独具特色。

The diminutive is common in Xiang dialects. There are 5 main types：suffix, a similar affix as a prefix, reduplication, tone change, and mixture. Compared with other dialects, the main method of the diminutive in Xiang Dialects is the affix, and the method of tone change is less. The main way is suffix of zai（崽） and its other forms： zaizai＂崽崽＂, zalji＂崽唧＂, zaizi＂崽子＂. And the similar affix as a prefix is very special, for example： zaizai＂崽崽＂, erer＂儿儿＂, lai＂俫＂and so on.
