Abstract
This paper uses the theories of phonemics,phonology and mathematical statistics to concrete research the 2500 commonly-used standard Chinese characters phonological system in different levels, including the statistics and analysis of three aspects: words frequency, syllable frequency and phoneme frequency. Some resulted have gained that: 1) There is a obvious difference in the words frequency distribution of the 2500 commonly-used Chinese characters,2) The number of homophones has an inverse proportion with its total frequency,3)The combination ability of the unaspirated initials,monophthong vowels and falling tone, whose combining ability is stronger than others. This paper provides data and certain reference value for the further study on phonological system of standard Chinese.
