碩士 / 國立暨南國際大學 / 中國語文學系 / 95 / Based on the modern phonology of Hai Kang dialect, this essay aims to explore into Hai Kang dialect of Guangdong Province from a phonetic perspective to generalize its synchronic phonology of components and limits. Taking the ancient Qiē yùn phonetic system as comparative model, the evolution of phonology for Hai Kang dialect from ancient to modern era will be further analyzed for an in-depth understanding of its rules of the historical evolution. By means of the detailed discussion on the phonology and tone of Hai Kang dialect, we can affirm that Hai Kang dialect is one of branches of southern-Min dialect. Meanwhile, we also uncover the characteristics of phonetic system of Hai Kang dialect that further helps us gain insight into the intimate relations of the dialect with southern-Min dialect as well as find an appropriate standing for Hai Kang dialect on the classification of southern-Min dialect.
In view of the overall phonetic system, Hai Kang dialect is exactly closest to the linguistic features of southern-Min dialect. Notwithstanding, Hai Kang dialect features some unique linguistic phenomena such as the special pronunciation for its vowels, falling short of nasalized rhyme, and continuous tone sandhi of regular simple tone, along with the causes which distinguish the dialect from that of southern-Min dialect, all of which are centers of emphasis for further discussion in this essay.
This essay consists of five chapters. The first chapter features Preface in which it gives account of the basic conception for the research of this essay, followed by a brief summation the geographical location and population of Hai Kang County. The second chapter focuses on the discussion on the synchronic phonology and syllabic structure of Hai Kang dialect. Taking the ancient qiē yùn phonetic system as comparative model, the third chapter delves into the vocal, rhyme, and tonic system to observe the historical evolution of phonetic system and separating and merging development for Hai Kang dialect as well as to attempt to seek rational explanation ad description for the exceptional part of evolutionary rules. Based on an exploration into the standing of Hai Kang dialect on southern-Min dialect, the fourth chapter works to explore into the intimate relations of Hai Kang dialect with southern-Min dialect, further trying to find an appropriate standing for Hai Kang dialect on the classification of southern-Min dialect. From a perspective of drawing a parallel with the linguistic aspect of other southern-Min sub-dialects, we think Hai Kang dialect is closer to southern-Min dialects spoken in Chaozhou and Shantou of Guangdong Province. Subsequently, we conduct a discussion on the linguistic difference between Hai Kang dialect and southern-Min dialect. Furthermore, we make a comparison of Hai Kang dialect with southern-Min dialect based on the discrepant phenomenon of yi mu zi, such as “b-“ and “z-“ nowadays, featured by Hai Kang dialect. We further surmise the existence of initial “*g-” in early Hai Kang dialect that results in the void phenomenon for present “*g-” as this phenomenon may be the result of conditional phonetic change caused by “i” or “u,” the final of syllable, that leads to the change for the velar stop initial “*g-” and disappearance of initial “*g-” for synchronic initial system of Hai Kang dialect nowadays. In Hai Kang dialect, it appears the phonetic change of “-k” → “-p” for “zhu, shu, rou” of the abrupt tones of Guang yun, i.e. tong shè hé kou san rhyme. Despite of a failure to find evolutionary conditions for the three tong shè abrupt tones, an observation of the link of such phenomenon with the linguistic change of velar stop sound “*g-” seems to hint some messages: the change for voiced stop sounds such as “b-,” “d-” and “g-” and endings of abrupt tones such as “-p,” “-t” and “-k” has followed a unanimous direction of evolution, i.e. “g” → “b” and “k” → “p.” In the fifth chapter, this essay gives a generalization of the discussion on rhythmic tone of corresponding sounds and summarizes the entire essay.
