The Study Of Modal Particles In Tengzhou Dialect

This paper takes the modal particles of Tengzhou dialect as the research object,mainly adopts the descriptive method and inductive method to systematically study the modal particles in Tengzhou dialect,and tries to show the whole picture of the modal particles in Tengzhou dialect.The paper consists of three chapters:The first part introduces the geographical history and phonetic system of Tengzhou,summarizes the research status of modal particles,and combs the research of dialect modal particles.This paper explains the purpose,significance and methods of this study,the source of corpus and the explanation of symbols.The first chapter describes the system of modal particles in Tengzhou dialect.The mood particles attached to the end of the statement sentence are used to objectively reflect the actual situation of the event,not including the speaker’s emotional attitude,but only to show the speaker’s understanding of the state of the event,such as whether it happened,whether it exists or not,whether it is developing or not.Tengzhou dialect has three types,such as“lao（唠）、lai₁（唻₁）”.Modal particles mainly express the speaker’s subjective feelings and attitudes.The mood information carried by modal particles is very rich and complex.There are seven kinds of modal particles in Tengzhou dialect,such as“bao₁（包₁⁼）、bei（呗）、hang（吭）、lai₂（唻₂）、lou（喽）、nin₁（咛₁⁼）、ye₁（也₁）”.Interrogative modal particles are located at the end of interrogative sentences,which are used to carry interrogative information and convey interrogative mood.There are five types of interrogative modal particles in Tengzhou dialect,such as“bao₁（包₂⁼）、mang（忙⁼）、nin₁（咛₂⁼）、lai₁（唻₃）、ye₁（也₂）”.The continuous use of modal particles in Tengzhou dialect can be divided into two groups of continuous use and three groups of continuous use.From the perspective of pragmatics,this paper explores the functions of modal particles in Tengzhou dialect,including semantic function,sentence completion function and textual function.The second chapter makes a diachronic comparison on some modal particles of Tengzhou dialect,including“bao（包⁼）、hang（吭）、lai（唻）、nin（咛⁼）、ye（也）”,explores their historical origin and development process.The third chapter selects some characteristic modal particles of Tengzhou dialect and Zibo dialect for comparative study,discusses the similarities and differences,and provides a supplement for the study of modal particles of Tengzhou dialect.The conclusion summarizes the main content of the article and points out the innovation and shortcomings of this paper.
