摘 要: 本文先讨论重音理论的起源、发展和现状,然后讨论重音在汉语中的体现,包括对普通话两字组重音新的分析,最后讨论汉语的特点对重音理论的意义。本文通过一系列例子说明,汉语的重音现象十分丰富,而且很多重音规律跟英语是一样的,如循环规则、声调-重音连接律、音步的定义和结构、韵母-重音对应律以及信息-重音对应律。这些研究不但可以进一步完善重音理论,而且说明,各种语言在重音方面的特性比前人想象的少,而重音的共性比前人想象的多。 关 键 词: 重音 音步 声调-重音连接律 韵母-重音对应律 信息-重音对应律 作者简介: 端木三,男,博士,美国密歇根大学语言学系教授,研究兴趣:语言的共性(特别是音系方面的共性),代表作:The Phonology of Standard Chinese(《汉语的音系》)和Syllable Structure(《音节结构》,E-mail:duanmu@umich.edu。 相关信息: 本文的题目由张洪明先生建议,《当代语言学》编辑在内容上提出了修改意见,并在文字上进行过一些加工,在此一并致谢。 (本文刊于《当代语言学》2014年03期P.288-302) Stress Theory and Stress Phenomena in Chinese DUANMU San Abstract: This paper reviews the origins, development, and current state of stress theory. It then discusses stress phenomena in Chinese, including a new analysis of stress patterns in disyllabic words. Finally, it discusses implications of the Chinese findings for stress theory. The study shows that there is a rich body of stress effects in Chinese, and the patterns are often similar to those in English, especially with regard to cyclic rules, the Tone-Stress Principle, foot structure, the Weight-Stress Principle, and the Information-Stress Principle. Such results not only can help improve stress theory but show that the difference among languages in less than previously thought, and that there are more common properties shared by all languages. Keywords: stress; foot; tone-stress principle; weight-stress principle; information-stress principle. (责任编辑：admin) |
