The Study On The Phonetic Annotation Of Liushugu

This article is based on the early Yuan Dynasty Dai Tong write the Liushugu so as there search object,the book of the phonetic materials made of exhaustiveness,using Microsoft Office Excel has set up a "phonetic materials of the Liushugu " corpus,a total of 8807 of phonetic material,be noted the word 7439.According to these materials,the phonological characteristics of the annotated characters are analyzed,so as to discuss the phonetic characteristics of the Chinese characters reflected in the Yuan Dynasty.The article is divided into five parts:The first part is the introduction: mainly described the selection of phonetic materials and the research purposes and methods of this article,and introduces the research status of phonetic and phonological aspects of the Liushugu.The second part is the discussion of initials: compares the phonetic materials of the Liushugu with those of the Guangyun and analyzes the characteristics of initials: There are 31 initials in the Liushugu.Devocalization in sonant of the phenomenon,most of the sonant initials are kept but a few of them are glossed together with voiceless initials.the initial consonant "非" combined with "敷","奉" and "微" kept their independency.There is mixing of aspirated and unaspirated sounds;"知" "庄" "章" combination occurred;initial "云" and "以" are combined,the part of initial "影" and "喻" are combined,zero initial is enlarged;initial "疑" is independent;initial "泥" and "娘" are combined.The third part is the discussion of finals:This part analyzes the vowel characteristics of Liushugu in the order of"阳声韵、阴声韵、入声韵",there are two main phenomena of the same and different vowel phonemes merging.The features of Liushugu finals are:there are 23 groups,finals of divisionⅠandⅡare combined,finals ofⅢandⅣare combined.The finals are combined in the same vowel group,level and opening."支思部"and"车遮部"existed in Liushugu;"止摄"and"蟹摄"are combined,so do the"果摄"and"假摄","江摄"and"宕摄";double rhyme are merged;some word syllable ended by-m become word syllable ended by-n;there is a phenomenon that enter tone-p,-t and-k fall off,which is manifested inthe mixing with"阴声韵",but most of the enter tone remain.The fourth part is the discussion of tone:Liushugu retains the four tones of"平""上""去""入",which are divide"阴"and"阳",there is the phenomenon of"全浊上声"changing to"去声";the existence of phenomenon that"入声"changing to"平声""上声""去声".The fifth part compares the initial vowel tone of Liushugu with that of Zhongyuanyinyun,They were written very recently,by comparing them,the phonetic characteristics of the Yuan Dynasty will be more clearly understood,Zhongyuanyinyun represents the pronunciation of the central plains.Dai Tong,the author of Liushugu,is from Wenzhou,Some of Liushugu’s phonetic annotations are influenced by Wenzhou dialect,by comparing the phonological system of Liushugu and Zhongyuanyinyun,it is convenient to investigate the dialect differences between the south and the north.
