普兰店方言元音格局代际差异的实验研究

An experimental study on the intergenerational differences of vowel patterns in Pulandian dialect

本研究采用声学实验的方法,以元音格局理论为依据,通过对比老中青3个年龄段的元音格局,考察不同年龄段发音人元音格局之间的代际差异。研究发现,不同年龄段发音人的元音格局之间确实存在代际差异,且发音人年龄越小,其元音格局越接近于普通话元音格局。这一现象表明普兰店方言元音格局在这几十年来一直在不断地向着普通话元音格局转变。导致这一代际差异的原因不仅有普通话强有力的影响,还有人们对普通话和当地方言所采取的不同态度。

Based on the Vowel Pattern theory,this paper investigates the cross-generation differences of vowel patterns of Pulandian local people by adopting the method of acoustic experiment.It is found that differences do exist among different generations in vowel patterns;the younger the generation is,the closer of their vowel patterns to that of Putonghua,which indicates that the vowel patterns of Pulandian dialect have been constantly changing towards Putonghua.The powerful influence of Putonghua as well as people’s language attitudes are the reasons for the change.
