益阳方言“去入同调”现象探析

On the Qu Tone as the Ru Tone in Yiyang Dialect

益阳方言属于湘语长益片益沅小片。绝大部分的中古去声字与中古入声字在益阳方言中的调值相同,出现了"去入同调"的现象。由于目前还不能从历史演变上拿出确凿的证据证明益阳方言是"去声变入"还是"入声变去",只能通过分析该方言的语言实际,充分考虑方言之间的比较以及古今音的比较等因素,将益阳方言的"去入同调"现象看作是"入声变去"更为合理。

Yiyang dialect belongs to Yiyuan small branch of Changyi branch in Xiang dialects. The ancient Qu tone is the same as the ancient Ru tone in Yiyang dialect. Currently no evidence shows which is absolutely correct in terms of the history evolution. Whereas, this paper declares that it is more reasonable to view that Ru tone changs into Qu tone in Yiyang dialect by considering such factors as analyzing the real specific features of Yiyang dialect, comparing it with the different dialects and differentiating its ancient and modem tones.
