基于方言比较的几个调查记音问题

Some Issues on the Transcription in the Field Investigations of Chinese Dialects from the Perspective of Dialectal Comparison

本文从方言调查实践出发,主要讨论调查中需要注意的几个音值问题,指出方言比较不能只停留在归纳音位上,更应该注意具体音值。方言比较有时候需要"去音位化"或"再音素化",才能更容易说清楚语音演变规律。文章最后对汉语方言中比较典型的几种音类的实际音值进行具体分析。

Based on practices of field investigations of Chinese dialects,this paper deals with some issues concerning phonetic value and argues that it is the phonetic value that is worthy of more attention than the phoneme in comparative studies of dialects.There are occasions on which the phonological evolution is far better explained when the procedure of de-phonemization or re-phonemization is adopted.The paper finally analyzes the specific phonetic values belonging to several typical sound classes in Chinese dialects.
