Japanese phonology system is formed from the last dynasty, which goes through lengthy historic merging, splitting and evolution; the complete system is established until1946when the Gendai kanadukai was issued out. The phonology system is not only the crystallization of Japanese people but also deeply influenced by other langue such as Korean, Chinese, Portuguese, Dutch and English. In this historic process of absorbing and rejecting, there is a longstanding connection between Chinese and Japanese phonology system. The influence to Japanese phonology system from the Chinese phonology system is that the Japanese kanji phonology includes the Goon, Kanon and Tang dynasty. Of which, the influence of Goon and Kanon is the primary one of the communication of all levels. The typical corresponding period is the period of the phonology system of mid-ancient Chinese pronunciation from the wei and j in dynasties to sui and tang dynasty. As a result, the key point of this article is to research the similarities and differences between the Goon and Kanon and the reasons.The author uses the Japanese characters in the dictionary of Japanese characters in common use, the dictionary of Gakuken Chinese-Janpanese written by Toudou Akiyasu and the dictionary of Chinese-Janpanese from Morohasi Tetsuji as the base of the research for the Goon and Kanon. For a deeper and slighter research, the author sets the following two conditions: 1. The scope is the Chinese characters with/a/as the main final. Since the modern Japanese main finals include too many finals, but the pronunciation of/a/is the steadiest. So after establishing the steadiest one, the other changeable ones will be clearer.2. Set the glottal sound and gutturophony of the mid-ancient Chinese pronunciation as the scope. Because the consonant of the japans words referring to glottal sound and gutturophony is Ka kou (Ga kou). So after establishing the steady one of the consonant, we can have a deeper research on the similarities and differences between the Goon and Kanon.This article makes the comparison between the similarities and differences between the initial of Chinese and the consonant of Japanese; between the final of Chinese and the Goon and Kanon of Japanese. This article analyzes the reason in microscopic and macroscopic way and tries to find the reason, feature and the pattern of the changing of the phonology system. But because of the restriction f the above two conditions, so the key point of this article is the comparison and research between the Goon and Kanon. This article is divided into5parts which are the prologue, the first chapter to the fourth chapter and the end, after which the references and the acknowledgement are attached. The following will be the brief introduction of the content and the structure of this article.In the prologue, it defines the reason and the purpose of this article, puts forward the content and the summarization of the following chapters on the basis of the summary of the former research and the innovation and the shortage of the former research.Chapter One. Introduction of Chinese and Japanese phonology. This chapter shows during the development of the Japanese phonology system, the importance of the influence to Japanese from the Goon and Kanon. and shows the relation between the initial, consonant, final, vowel and phonology.Also the original definition of the Goon and Kanon have been defined.Chapter Two. The research of the comparison between the Chinese and Japanese pronunciation of the glottal sound words in the mid-ancient Chinese pronunciation of the Chinese characters with/a/as the main final. This chapter uses the scope of the glottal sound words. First, it analyzes the relation between the Goon and Kanon according to the relation between the initial and the consonant. Second, it analyzes the relation between the Chinese vowel and the vowel of the Chinese characters with/a/as the main final in transverse and vertical ways. From which, it gets the difference and the relation between the Goon and Kanon inside the Chinese characters of the final and glottal sound. And also the reason has been analyzed.Chapter Three. The research of the comparison between the Chinese and Japanese pronunciation of the gutturophony words in the mid-ancient Chinese pronunciation of the Chinese characters with/a/as the main final. First, it analyzes the relation between the Goon and Kanon according to the relation between the initial and the consonant. Second, it analyzes the relation between the Chinese vowel and the vowel of the Chinese characters with/a/as the main final in transverse and vertical ways. From which, it gets the difference and the relation between the Goon and Kanon inside the Chinese characters of the final and gutturophony. And also the reason has been analyzed.Chapter Four. The research of the comparison between the Chinese and Japanese pronunciation of the glottal sound and gutturophony words in the mid-ancient Chinese pronunciation of the Chinese characters with/a/as the main final. This chapter is the key point of this article. On the basis of the chapter2and3, it first describes the difference and similarity of the Goon and Kanon of the consonant system and also describes the reasons by comparing the initial of the glottal sound and gutturophony. Second, it shows the difference and similarity of the Goon and Kanon of the initial system and also describes the reasons by comparing the final of the glottal sound and gutturophony. At last, after deeper research, it shows the feature and the reason of the changing of the phonology, and builds the change model.The end summarizes the article and points the shortage of this article and brings forward the idea of the deeper research about this topic.
