三十年来山西忻州方言语音的变化

Two Significant Pronunciation Changes of Xinzhou Dialect in the Past Thirty Years

调查发现,近三十年来山西忻州方言在声、韵、调等方面都发生了一些明显的变化,其中表现最为突出的是韵母和声调的变化:一是桓欢韵消失并入寒山韵;二是阴平、上声分化,由四个声调演变为五个声调。我们还发现,近三十年来山西忻州方言中古到近代桓欢韵的消变因入声和舒声之异而消变速度不同,原因有二:一是边缘区与中心区情况不同,前者慢,后者快;二是锐音、钝音情况不同,前者慢,后者快。这一现象值得进一步追踪。

Recent investigation has found that the Xinzhou dialect of shanxi Provice has undergone some obvious changes in sound in the past 30years,among which the change in rhyme and tone is the most prominent.Firstly,the Henghuan Rhyme disappeared and merged into Hanshan Rhyme.Secondly,the high-level tone and rising tone differentiated,changing into five tones from four.The investigation shows the change of Henghuan Rhyme is different in speed because of the difference between entering tone and the level tone,and there are two causes of this phenomenon.
