摘要
文章采用邻接算法、主成分分析方法以及高程模拟综合图的交叉分析方法对11个闽南方言音系材料进行计算分析,可得到闽南方言区域传播的固有模式。计算结果显示闽南方言的传播模式为从东北向西南沿海岸线传播,这与人口迁移史相吻合。计算结果在音系结构相似度、语言历史、语言传播方向等方面与传统语言学研究成果可互相印证,说明通过方言音系结构之间的差异分析语言演化模式具有可行性。
This study illustrates the language spread pattern in the southern Min dialect area.Neighbor-joining method,Principal Component Analysis and synthetic mapping from Digital Elevation Model are used to compute the phonological data of 11 southern Min dialects.The results show that the spread direction of the southern Min dialect is from the northeast coast to the southwest coast.It is consistent with the history of population migration in that area.The conclusions confirm the previous results of linguistic studies on southern Min dialects,especially in the research of computing linguistic similarity,including reconstructing language history and predicting language evolution trends.Moreover,the present study proves the feasibility of establishing the language evolution mode by calculating the phonological differences among the languages.
