A Study Of Structural Auxiliary Words Of Non-beijing Mandarin Dialect Area In Hebei Province

This thesis regards the structural auxiliary words of non-Beijing mandarin dialect area in Hebei Province as the research object, and through a field survey of108dialects, describes in detail and analyzes the structural auxiliary words in that area, and makes a detailed study in their types and sound variations.This thesis is mainly divided into three chapters:the first chapter briefly describes the structural auxiliary words in Hebei dialects; the second chapter, according to the sectors of Hebei dialects divided by the academic, gives a description of the use of the structural auxiliary words in each dialect sector; the third mainly involves some sound variations of structural auxiliary words in Hebei dialects. Through the research, we have several conclusions:Firstly, from the phonetic form, the variations of structural auxiliary words in Hebei dialects can be mainly divided into [1] and [t] initial consonants with a few [n] initial consonants. Among them, the type of [1] has several different pronunciations like [li]、[le]、[la]、[l?];the type of [t] has [ti]、[t?]、[tA]、[tia]、[tai]、[tei];the type of [n]has[na]、[nA]、[niε].At the same time, for language flows change, structural auxiliary words can form some variants. For example,[ti] is a structural auxiliary word in Haixing county dialect, when it is in a "the" word structure,and in question sentence end, it can combine the mood word "啊"to turn into [tA].Secondly, the specific use of structural auxiliary words in Hebei dialects is: Qinhuangdao and Tangshan dialect’s structural auxiliary words mostly can be pronounced as [tA]、[ti]、[tia]、[tai]、[t?] and so on; Baoding and Bazhou dialect’s structural auxiliary words mostly can be pronounced as [li]、[ti]、[t?]、[ti]、[tA]、[niε]; Cangzhou dialect mostly uses [ta]、[ti]; Shijiazhuang and Hengshui dialect uses [li]、[l?]、[lei]、[lai]、[ti]、[t?]、[na]andso on; Zhangjiakou and Xuanhua dialect uses [t?]、[tA]; Luquan and Yuanshi dialect uses [lei]and[li]; most structural auxiliary words in Xingtai and Handan dialect especially in Weixian、Daming are [lei]。Thirdly, structural auxiliary words in tongue flow are prone to phonetic change. The changes in Hebei dialects mainly involve the vowels transformed to the central and initial consonants’ loss, assimilation and syllable merger. Central of vowelsis important manifestation of pronunciation’s reduction; Initial consonants’ loss iscaused by deepening pronunciation’s reduction; assimilation mainly occurs betweentwo syllables, and typical assimilation is mainly affected by the “---r” effect of itsneighboring syllable pronunciation, causing itself “---r” effect.
