The Experimental Study On Tones Of Yanwu Dialect In Shanxi,fenyang

The Fenyang dialect belongs to the Lvliang dialects of Jin group.The Yanwu town is located for 15 kilometers away from the Donfentun Road of Fenyang city,and its east border is adjacent to Pingyao,its southeast border is adjacent to Jiexiu,and its south border is adjacent to Xiaoyi.Although the Yanwu dialect belongs to Lvlliang dialect,its characteristic is more closer to Bingzhou dialect.There is still no research data for Yanwu dialect at present,so this article adopts the experimental means to examine the Yanwu dialect so as to have a more comprehensive understanding of Yanwu dialect.This thesis includes five chapters.The first chapter is the introduction,which introduces the background of the experimental study of Chinese tones,the general study situation of the phonological tone of Lvliang dialect,the research purpose,the research methods,the research process and the sound system of Yanwu dialect.The chapter two investigates the pitch and duration of the mono-syllable tone of Yanwu dialect,and have worked out the mono-syllable tone pattern and duration patter,and then summarizes that there is no opposition between Rusheng and other tones.The chapter three analyzes the Yanwu dialect's bio-syllable tone patterns from two aspects of pitch and duration,generalizes its bi-syllable tone patterns,and then analyzes its continuous modulation characteristics,the distinguish between Yinping and Yangping,the relationship between continuous modulation and grammatical structure,the duration status of the front word and the last word in the continuous modulation of the bio-syllable tone patterns.The fourth chapter concludes that Rusheng in mono-syllable tone has already fallen off the glottal stop terminal and the duration has already occurred gentle transformation,thus it can classify as a category tone with the level tone of homology type,and there are only three tones for the Yanwu dialect.Rusheng has already vanished the tail vowel after being the last word,and it opposites with the homology level tone while being the front word Therefore,it is an unavoidable sage for the Yanwu dialect to have different duration because of the different position of the entering tone.The chapter five studies the Yanwu dialect's creaky voice from the perspective of sound production form,and then sums up that as an accompanying feature,the crack voice is used to depict the "low","concave",so there is no opposition for the tone position.After that,this paper speculates the evolution direction of Shangsheng and Yangru throngh crack voice,which is falling-rising tone?falling-level tone?falling tone.
