A Phonetic Study Of The Dialect Of Qinlong Dialect In Central Plains Mandarin In Southern Shaanxi

There are many language resources such as central plains mandarin,Jianghuai mandarin,southwest mandarin,Jiangxi dialect,Hunan dialect,hakka dialect in southern Shaanxi,which have formed a complex contact relationship and become a treasure for the study of dialect contact and fusion.However,the study of dialects in southern Shaanxi is still weak,the definition of the nature and range of mixed dialects in southern Shaanxi is not accurate enough,the description of single dialects and the comparative study of dialects within the region is insufficient.Qinlong dialect of central plains mandarin in southern Shaanxi is distributed in river valleys,plains,hills and some shallow mountains along rivers or ancient trunk roads in five counties,which including Mian county,Lueyang county,Xiguan,hantai district,Nanzheng district and the northern region.This paper selects nine dialects in five counties to make a comprehensive investigation and description on qinlong dialect of central plains mandarin in southern Shaanxi to reveal their phonetic features.According to synchronic comparison of the five representative dialects and compares them with the middle ancient phonology,this paper aims to analyze the internal phonetic differences and summarizes the diachronic evolution of qinlong dialect of central plains mandarin in southern Shaanxi.At the same time,compare qinlong dialect of central plains mandarin in southern Shaanxi with dialects of old and new immigrants to isolate the contact layers of it.From the perspectives of some theories,such as dialect contact theory,geographical linguistics research,combination of immigrant history and dialect studies,this paper analyzes the hybrid phonetics and lexical features of qinlong dialect of central plains mandarin in southern Shaanxi under languages contact mainly between qinlong dialect of central plains mandarin and chuanqianpian dialects of southwest mandarin,and attempt to speculate the development trend of qinlong dialect of central plains mandarin in southern Shaanxi.The main contents of this paper are as follows:The first chapter introduces history,politics,geography,immigration and dialect situation in the area,provided a review of previous studies of qinlong dialect of central plains mandarin in southern Shaanxi,find deficiency which need to be perfected,and describes the scientific value of this study,the main methods used.Also introduce the source of dialect materials,the selection criteria and information of representative dialects and articulator,investigation materials and special symbols.The second chapter gives a detailed description of the phonology of nine points of qinlong dialect,including the consonant,vowel,tune and monosyllabic vowel coordination table.The third chapter compares the phonological evolution of dialects of Lueyang(chengguan),Mianxian(chengguan),Hantai(xiguan),Nanzheng(chengguan)and Ningqiang(yangpingguan)in southern Shaanxi.The fourth chapter compares the phonetic system of qinlong dialect of central plains mandarin in southern Shaanxi with that of the central plains mandarin of Guanzhong and Longnan regions,as well as chuanqianpian dialects of southwest mandarin.Based on the similarities and differences between these dialects and different pronunciation in written or oral language of it,we can find the phonetic contact features of qilongpian dialect of central plains mandarin in southern Shaanxi and separate its phonetic levels.The fifth chapter discusses the hybrid features and contact levels of the vocabulary of the qinlong dialect of central plains mandarin in southern Shaanxi,analyzes the causes of the internal differences of the dialect,tries to speculate the development trend of qinlong dialect of central plains mandarin in southern Shaanxi,and discuss its nature and attribution.
