A Statistical Study On The Phonemic Structure Of Huarui Tibetan Dialect Based On Corpus

Although Huarui dialect belongs to Ando dialect,it has its own unique characteristic,which is completely different from other Tibetan dialects.As it has kept many language features of Tubo period,it takes an irreplaceable role in the research of Tibetology and The Studies of Dunhuang Caves.So far,the research on Huarui dialect has not drawn enough attention,so a further and thorough research on Huarui dialect is of great significance to the research of Tibetan language.In the thesis,I set up a corpus with 3200 Huarui words,marked in narrow transcription as well.The corpus contains the words of Ando dialect as well as the unique words of Huarui dialect which includes the inherent voice and vocabulary features,which can represent the universal linguistic phenomenon of Huarui dialect.This thesis is made up of five parts.The first part is the introduction which mainly focuses on the following topics,the funding,the general situation of the research,the basis of the selected topic,the research goal and the significance,also the early Tibetan grammar.The second part systematically explained the establishment of the corpus from two aspects,collecting and labeling.The third part focuses on labeling according to the corpus.A statistical analysis is made on the phonemic system of Huarui consonants and vowels from different aspects,mainly from the place and manner of pronunciation.Meanwhile,I summarized the rules of the combination of consonants and vowels according to the places of pronunciation,as well as the distribution feature.I found out the relation between Huarui dialect and the Tibetan written language,and got a new idea and reliable data for further study.The forth part focuses on a further conclusion of the thesis fom different perspective,like the distribution of syllables,pronunciation,the correspondence of the formation of Tibetan syllables and the pronunciation of Huarui dialect,the collocation of the consonants and vowels.The fifth part is the summary of the thesis,including the content needed further research.
