茶堡嘉戎语大藏方言的音系分析——兼论方言特殊元音比较

A Phonological Analysis of the Tatshi Dialect of Japhug Rgyalrong:With a Cross-dialectal Comparison of Special Vowels

本文以推进原始茶堡嘉戎语的构拟为目的,对大藏方言德尔巴话的语音进行了严谨的系统化分析,梳理大藏方言的音位系统,提出主要的音系变化规律,并演示相关表面形式的生成过程。最后,对比大藏方言与龙尔甲方言的音系,针对两者差异最显著的?/y元音分布与演变进行比较分析。

Japhug Rgyalrong is spoken by Tibetan people in Ma’erkang(Mbarkhams)county,Aba(Rngaba)Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture in Sichuan Province.The Japhug Area comprises three primary townships:Long’erjia(■,■dur■■t),Sha’erzong(■,sor^ndzu),and Dazang(■,tats^hi).From around 2000,this language has been investigated systematically.Guillaume Jacques and Tsendzin,in particular,have published a series of in-depth papers that unravel various linguistic aspects of the■dur■■t dialect.On the other hand,not much has been published concerning the other dialects of Japhug Rgyalrong.The present paper is a phonological analysis of the phonemes in the Tatshi dialect,with a rigorous phonemic analysis,including phonological rules that derive the surface forms observed.Toward the end of the paper,a cross-dialectal comparison is undertaken to lay out the development of the vowel■/y,a vowel that shows glaring disparity in terms of occurrences and distribution between the dialects of■dur■■t and Tashi.
