《乡言解颐》词语札记

Lexical Studies on “The Dialects”

《乡言解颐》主要记录了京津地区的乡言俗语,学者已经做过了一些训释工作,但仍有不少词语不曾涉及或解释不够清晰。文章摘取其中不易理解或者缺乏考释的四个系列词语进行训释,除了利用文献辞书来进行考释外,还注重从现代活方言和活民俗中寻求证据。文章对近代汉语方俗词的研究、大型语文辞书的某些漏略、此书点校者的一些疏忽,以及帮助人们阅读此书都有不同程度的裨益。

Li Guangting's "The Dialects"mainly recorded dialects and colloquialisms of Beijing and Tianjin,on which many scholars had done some work on the meaning of the words.However,there are still many problems on lack of clear interpretation. Four series of words are selected to work on. There are not only papers and dictionaries employed for research but also authentic dialect data. The problems and shortcomings in literature dictionaries are pointed out to help the readers to gain better understanding.
