The modal particles is an important characteristic in the Chinese language. The modal particles in dialecs are abundant and varying respectively, different dialects have their own system of modal particles. Therefore, the modal particles have much bigger research value. This thesis is about the description analysis and observation of Lincheng dialectical modal particles on the basis of modal particles synchronically, Lincheng dialectical modal particles have thirteen single-used modal particles and eighteen joint-used modal particles, it is discussed in five parts.Introduction briefly introduces the research history and current situation of the modal particles and dialectical modal particles. Based on the description, it introduces the significance of the study on the dialectical modal particles. Lincheng dialect is one part of Jilu Mandarin, this thesis surveys Lincheng dialectical modal particles and cleans up comprehensive modal particles. It classfies Lincheng dialectical modal particles according to characteristic of Lincheng dialectical mood and intends to show the functional features through the analysis on sentence structrue, and displays the sameness and difference of every modal particle through analysis on assumption. Based on the analysis, it builds the system of modal particles in the Lincheng dialect.Chapter 1: it briefly introduces definition, formation and function of the modal particles. The modal particles origin from auxiliary words , they are a class of FunctionWords which are used in the sentence or the end of the sentence. The modal particles can express moods solely, they can also express moods along with the tone of and adverb. The modal particles in the sentence act as stagnation and the role of full sentence. The formation of particles in three ways: The first is common, the second is the voice derivatives and the third is the Content Words nominal.Chapter 2: At first, it divides modal particles into six categories, they are declarative, interrogative, exclaimtive, imperative, suspended, subjunctive. Based on the categories, it descripts the tone significance and grammatical features of every modal particle. Declarative: a(啊), bai(呗), lai(唻), jia(价), lan(兰2), lao(唠), li(哩2), li(哩3). Interrogative: ang(昂), ba(吧), bai(呗), lai(唻), lang(啷), li(哩2), me(么), ye(吔). Exclaimtive: ang(昂), lan(兰2), li(哩2), ye(吔). Imperative: ang(昂), ba(吧), lan(兰2), lao(唠), ye(吔). Suspended: a(啊), ang(昂), ba(吧), lan(兰2). Subjunctive: lao(唠), li(哩2). Furthermore, it specifies the modal particles'function and usage.At last, it summarizes grammatical meaning and semantic environment respectively. For example: lai(唻) and lan(兰2) are all declarative, but lai(唻)shows that things have occurred in the recent, lan(兰2) shows that matter or action have occurred in the present. lai(唻) and lang(啷) are all speculation question, but lai(唻) inclines to affirme the meaning of the entire sentence, lang(啷) inclines to negate the meaning of the entire sentence.Chapter 3: It summarizes some characteristics of these modal particles from the phonetic, grammatical perspectives, the level of aggregation and tries to build the system of modal particles in the Lincheng dialect. Firstly, it summarizes voice structure of the Lincheng dialectical modal, summes up their voice distribution characteristics: Vowels of Lincheng dialectical modal particles more concentrate in the Phonology of ai, a and ang, consonants mainly concentrate in the Phonology of l. Lincheng dialectical modal particles is mainly on the end of the sentence, individual modal particles can be used in the sentence, tone of the role is suspended. The joint-used modal particles in the Lincheng dialect are divided into Single category and Portfolio category. Their combination must follow certain sequence: the frontal modal particles is relevant to the sentence tense and the final modal particles is relevant to the whole sentence mood., the sequence can not be changed.Conclusion: It summarizes general idea of every chapter and points out the deficiency of the thesis, in order to supplement and improve in the future study.
