내적 재구 방법론을 통한 신약성경 그리스어의 자음 음가 재구

Abstract

There are three reasons to reconstruct the original sound values of Hellenistic Greek consonants according to linguistic levels. At the phonological level, we can trace the phonological rules based on the phonological process if we know the exact sound values of Hellenistic Greek. At the level of morphology, we can teach the derivational affix and inflectional affix in an easier way. At the level of syntax, we can understand syntactic rules according to phonological process and phonological rules. We can explain some irregular morphological and syntactic rules into regular morphological and syntactic rules on the basis of reconstructed original sound values. From the perspective of syntax, a good grammar is to reduce irregular grammatical rules.<BR> The grammarians of Hellenistic Greek have suggested their reconstructed sound values of Hellenistic Greek consonants. But they have not applied General Linguistics to reconstructing the sound values because General Linguistics as an academic subject did not begin at that time. It is also probable that some recent scholars, in a sense, did not accept nor understand the outcomes of General Linguistics fully. In relation to reconstruction of sound values, linguists have generally used internal reconstruction to reconstruct the original sound values of a language. It is persuasive to use the method of internal reconstruction to reconstruct the sound values of Hellenistic Greek consonants. According to the linguistic analysis of internal reconstruction, the original sound values of Hellenistic consonants can be explained as follows:<BR> σ alveolar fricative<BR> β bilabial voiced plosive<BR> δ alveolar voiced plosive<BR> γ palatal voiced plosive<BR> π bilabial unaspirated voiced plosive<BR> τ alveolar unaspirated voiced plosive<BR> κ palatal unaspirated voiced plosive<BR> ϕ bilabial aspirated voiceless plosive<BR> θ alveolar aspirated voiceless plosive<BR> χ palatal aspirated voiceless plosive<BR> ψ bilabial voiceless affricate<BR> ζ alveolar voiced affricate<BR> ξ palatal voiceless affricate<BR> μ bilabial nasal<BR> ν alveolar nasal<BR> λ palatal lateral<BR> ρ gutteral rolled
