| This paper takes the phonetic system of Saisongben Miao in Laos as the research object.We have described the pronunciation of Laos Saisongben Miao,especially the initials,finals,and tones of Laos Saisongben Miao,and also described the tone change of Laos Saisongben Miao.And compared the phonetic system of Laos Saisongben Miao and China’s Dananshan Miao.This thesis consists of six parts,with four chapters in total except the introduction and conclusion.The introduction mainly expounds the reason and significance of the topic,the research history and current situation,the research method,the research focus,the investigation situation and the phonetic notation.The Chapter 1 "Laos and Laos Saisongben Miao and Language Overview".It mainly introduces the basic situation of Laos,Laos Saisongben Miao and Laos Saisongben Miao.The Chapter 2 "Laos Saisongben Miao Phonetics".It mainly introduces the phonology of Laos Saisongben Miao,including initials,finals,and tonal systems.There are 56 initials i n Laos Saisongben Miao,which are divided into single consonant initials and complex consonant initials.Among them,there are 35 single consonant initials,including zero initials;there are 21 complex consonant initials,including 18 complex nasal consonants.There are 13 finals in Laos Saisongben Miao,6 unitary finals,5 complex vowels,and 2 nasal vowels.There are 7 tones in the Laos Saisongben Miao language,and different letters and numbers are used to indicate the type and value of the tones.For example: high flat tone "b",the tone value is 55,falling and rising tone "m",the tone value is 213,middle falling tone "j",the tone value is 31,low rising tone "v",the tone value is 13,times High flat key "k" with a key value of 44,medium flat key "s" with a key value of 33,high flat key "g" with a key value of 53.The Chapter 3 "Continuing Tone Changes in Laos Saisongben Miao".It mainly studies the tone change of the Miao language of Saisongben in Laos.The tone change of the Miao language in the Laos Saisongben is divided into two-syllable group tone change and the tone change of the number "one" + quantifier.Specifically,it includes the tone-shifting of the linked reading with the syllable of the preceding word being “b” tone,the tone-shifting of the linked reading with the syllable of the preceding word being the tone of “m”,the linked reading-shifting of the syllable of the preceding word being the tone of “j”,the linked reading-shifting of the syllable of the preceding word being the tone of “v”,and the syllable of the preceding word being Tone-transposition of “s”tone and tone-transposition of “一”+“m”,tone-transposition of “一”+“j”,tone-transposition of“一”+“v”,and tone-transposition of “一”+“s” Continuation of reading.The fourth chapter is "a comparative study of the phonetics between Laos Saisongben Miao and China Dananshan Miao".This chapter compares the tones of the Laos Saisongben Miao and the Danangshan Miao,and discusses and analyzes the phonetic similarities and differences between the Laos Saisongben Miao and The China Danangshan Miao.There are 56 initials in the Dananshan Miao language.Such as: Laos Saisongben Miao language has [d],[dh] initials,but China Dananshan Miao language does not.After comparison,The China Dana nshan Miao language has [tl] and [tlh] initials,but the Laos Saisongben Miao language does not.After analyzing [d],[dh] in Laos Saisongben Miao language and [tl],[tlh] in China Dananshan Miao language,there is a corresponding relationship between pronunciation in terms of word meaning and function.Specifically,[de31] and [tle31] have the same meaning(water);[diɑ55] and [tlɑ55] have the same meaning(jump).There are 13 finals in the China Dananshan Miao language,including monophonic finals,complex vowel finals and nasal final finals.The China Dananshan Miao language has front and rear nasal final finals,but Laos Saisongben Miao language has only rear nasal final finals,and no front nasal final finals.From the perspective of the words of the two,we believe that the rear nasal final final [e(?)] of the Laos Saisongben Miao language corresponds to the front nasal final final [en] of the China Dananshan Miao language.Such as: [t(?)e(?)55] in Laos Saisongben Miao language and [t(?)en43] in China Dananshan Miao language(the meaning of both is "true").There are 8 tones in the Miao language of Dananshan in China.Here,the “b” tone of the Laos Saisongben Miao language corresponds to the “b” tone of the China Dananshan Miao language.Although the two use the same tone symbol to express,the tonal values of the two are inconsistent.For example,here we can see that the tone “b”of Laos Saisongben Miao is high flat tone 55,while the “b”tone of China Dananshan Miao language is medium flat tone 43.The conclusion summarizes the main problems of this study,the main viewpoints of the study,the main innovations of the study,and the future research space.We believe that the Saisongben Miao language in Laos and the languages in Laos need further in-depth research. |
