海南话中的闽语特征词

The Min Feature Words in Hainan Min Dialect

方言特征词是最具方言特色的词语。将李如龙先生所拟200例闽语特征词置于海南闽语词汇中进行比较分析,结果显示:海南闽语中与源头闽语同源的特征词的比例达80.5%;两个点以上达到同源同指的词的比例为70%;4个点全部同源同指的词的比例也超过了半数(58.5%)。这说明海南闽语与福建闽语是一脉相承的,但也有一部分特征词例在海南话的用法上发生了同源近指、同源异指等变化。

Feature words are most characteristic of the vocabulary of a dialect. By comparing the 200 Min Feature Words raised by Mr. LI Ru-long, which is of a Pan-Min nature, with the glossaries of Hainan Min dialect, it is revealed that 80.5% of the total are found existent in Hainan Min and more than half （58.5%） of the feature words are consistent in usage with the source Min dialect, with only a few differing in reference meaning to a different degree. This shows that Hainan Min as a branch of Min dialect in China still retains substantial elements to a great part.
