桂平市麻垌镇土白话的语音系统

The Phonological System of the Dialect Tu Bai Hua in Madong Town of Guiping City

桂平市位于广西壮族自治区东南部,其境内麻垌镇土白话是一种勾漏片粤语。该方言音系架构与以广州话为代表的广府片粤语大同小异,其相异处主要反映比广府片粤语更早的语音层次。麻垌土白话最突出的特点是有比较系统的送气分调现象,该现象不仅在粤语里比较罕见,而且其古溪母、晓母字在送气分调系统中的特殊表现对深入研究汉语方言送气分调现象成因以及粤语历史音变具有特殊价值。文章对桂平麻垌镇土白话音系进行初步描写,并简要探讨了其特点。
