언어 지역 유형론적 관점에서 본 漢語와 소수 민족 언어의 파열음 운미 유형 - 중국 중·남부 지역을 중심으로

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to typologically analyze plosive coda ‘-p, -t, -k’ and areal typology of the Sinitic languages and minority languages distributed in central and southern China, centering on the Yangtze River basin and the southern part of the Yangtze River, and to consider the relationship and influence of ethnic minority languages distributed together in or around the same region from a view of areal typology.<BR> Mainland China is a complex distribution of languages belonging to various language families, such as the Sino-Tibetan languages, Kra-Dai languages, Austronesian languages, Austroasiatic languages, and Altaic languages. Since they have strong linguistic contacts over a long period of time, the study of language typology in mainland China has a very important meaning not only for the study of Chinese but also for the study of world language typology.<BR> First of all, this paper compares and analyzes the classification of Chinese dialect area in the preceding studies to reconsider the criteria and methods for classifying language typology in Chinese dialect area, and discusses the need for subdividing Mandarin dialects and adding other ethnic languages. In addition, by creating a language altas of typology about the plosive coda of the Sinitic dialect and ethnic minority languages, we observe the areal typology of the plosive coda of Sinitic dialects and ethnic minority languages distributed in mainland China from a macro perspective. In addition, in connection with ethnic minority languages distributed in the central and southern regions of China and its neighboring regions, it attempts to analyze the regional type of the plosive coda of the Chinese central and southern regions from a regional typological angle. By observing and analyzing the type of areal distribution of the plosive coda in the same region together based on the plosive coda ‘-p, -t, -k’ and the areal distribution of the plosive coda in the ethnic minority languages, the close language contact and language shift phenomena of the Sinitic languages and ethnic languages are discussed.
