复辅音声母:形声字与声符“异纽”现象的一种解释

Initial Consonant Cluster:an explanation on Different Consonant of Phonogram Characters

造字之初,形声字(包括会意兼形声字)与声符在声母和韵母上都是相同或相近的,这点大多数形声字都可通过指出某字与其声符的上古音韵关系得到说明;而部分形声字与声符的"异纽"(即在上古音韵关系中仅韵部相同或相近,而声纽却相去甚远)现象,似可从"古汉语曾有过的少量复辅音声母最终演化为单辅音声母"的角度加以解释;根据古汉语三类复辅音声母的两种可能演变结果,可从声韵关系上对形声字与声符的"异纽"现象,给出一种合乎逻辑的系统说明。

When creating the Chinese characters, the phonetic signs of phonogram characters are same or similar in initial consonant and thymes, which can be approved by most of phonogram characters with their old Chinese phonology. However, some phonogram characters have different consonants, which can only be explained from a few of initial consonant cluster changed to single consonant. The two evolution results of the initial consonant clusters can be systematically explained from the viewpoint of the relationship of consonant and rhyme in phonogram characters as well as different phonetic signs.
