A Study On The Pronunciation And Evolution Of The ZHI (止) Rime Group In GuangXi Yue Dialects

The ZHI(止)rime group of The Middle Dynasty is one of the 16 rhyme photography,and the evolution of the Chinese phonology is complicated.It comes from a number of ancient rhymes,and in the Middle Ages,there was a phonological phenomenon of large confluence of branches.On the basis of historical documents and classics as research materials,there are many research results reflecting the cross-sectional phonological characteristics of historical sound changes.The study of the phonetic evolution of the ZHI(止)rime group characters in modern Chinese dialects has become the direction and hot spot of the next research,which can explore the performance and evolution of the middle and ancient stop-regent characters in modern Chinese dialects.In this paper,homophones are selected from 69 dialect points in the three areas of Guang Xi Cantonese dialect: Yongxun Piece,Gouyi Piece and Qinlian Piece,then using the method of diachronic and synchronic comparison,the present reading performance of Zhi Zhi characters in Guangxi Cantonese dialect is listed,the pronunciation types and evolution of Zhi Zhi characters in Guangxi Cantonese dialect are summarized,and the historical phonology involved in the modern reading performance of Guangxi Cantonese dialect is discussed.In such an overall voice landscape,there are two dynamic changes: First,the phenomenon of i>(?) high vowel "high out of the top" occurs in the Guangxi Cantonese dialect Yongxun film and hook leakage film.In Cantonese with Cantonese dialect as the positive sound,the confluence of vowels of the Jingzhi Zhuangzhang group evolved into only one set of tongue tip front stop fricatives,but in the Guangxi Cantonese dialect,the division of the consonants of the Jingzhi Zhuangzhang group was different,and the dialect points of the three areas reflected two sets of stop fricatives,namely the tip of the tongue anterior stop fricative [(?) (?) s] and the tongue lobe stop fricative [(?) (?) (?)].Especially in the two areas of Yongxun film and Qinlian film,the separation mode of "Jingzhuang Zhuangzhang group (?)rhyme: zhi group i rhyme" and "Jingzhuang group (?)rhyme: zhizhang group i rhyme" appeared in the stop of the missing piece and the three pieces of the hook and leak piece,showing the separation mode of "jingzhuang group (?) rhyme: zhizhang group i rhyme".Therefore,this phenomenon of vowel "high at the top" is related to the evolution of vowel separation and convergence in the Middle Ages,indicating the two-way evolution of phonological interaction.Second,the specific vowel value of the main vowel form of the compound vowel form of the stop word in the three areas has the synchronic order of prevowel lowering and then post-highening.The Guangxi Cantonese dialect Gongxun and Goujiao reflect two manifestations of the phenomenon of“Zhi(支)and Wei(微)convergence into Yu(鱼)”.The first is The ZHI(止)HⅢinto Yu(鱼虞),and the second is The ZHI(止)KⅢinto Yu(鱼虞).These two forms of“Zhi(支)and Wei(微)convergence into Yu(鱼)”.In addition,the medieval Zhixing character in the Cantonese dialect of Guangxi also reflects the phenomenon of“Yu(鱼)convergence into Zhi(支)and Wei(微)”.The former phenomenon of“Zhi(支)and Wei(微)convergence into Yu(鱼)”has few words in the Guangxi Cantonese dialect Yongxun tablets and hook leakage tablets,while the latter phenomenon of“Yu(鱼)convergence into Zhi(支)and Wei(微)”phenomenon has more characters.This paper agrees with the view that“Yu(鱼)convergence into Zhi(支)and Wei(微)”may reflect the phenomenon of square tone,but the analysis is insufficient and needs further investigation and research.There are other special phonological phenomena in the three areas of the Cantonese dialect of Guangxi.The first is the convergence of Kai San and Ma San,which only occurs sporadically,and this phenomenon exists in the white reading layer of the Cantonese dialect of Guangxi.The second is that the phenomenon of pronunciation and relaxation of the stop character in the Cantonese dialect of Guangxi is manifested as the proliferation of the stop rhyme tail before the tip of the tongue and the stop rhyme tail at the root of the tongue.The third is that the Yang sound rhyme of Guangxi Cantonese dialect ingested the rhyme end of the sound character falling off,and the phenomenon of mixing with the stop opening three phases is manifested in the opening of the Yang sound rhyme such as the Yang sound rhyme of the hook and leak piece Shenshan Zeng Zhen.This phenomenon may indicate that there are signs of dissipation in the phonological endings of the Cantonese dialect in Guangxi,and this paper speculates that the Cantonese dialect points may be subject to linguistic contact by the surrounding native dialects.
