摘要
“稻谷”是生活在长江流域中远古人类发现并培育起来进行广泛种植的主要粮食资源,同时也是苗瑶语族中的固有词。纵观苗瑶语族中苗语支与瑶语支各个方言、次方言和土语对“稻子”一词的读音,单音节声母为[n-]的多为长期种植水稻为主的语言文化群体,使用复辅音声母如[mpl-]、[ntɬ-]等则是长期以种植旱稻为主的语言文化群体。通过对“稻子”词汇的苗瑶语古音构拟分析,不仅为苗语支和勉语支各方言土语的同源关系提供了相应的分析借鉴,也为苗瑶语训诂学在语义解释上拓展了语言文化研究的新领域。
“Rice”is the major food resource which was discovered and cultivated by ancient human beings in the Yangtze River Basin,which is also an inherent word in the Miao and Yao languages.Ac⁃cording to all the pronunciations of“rice”in the dialects,sub-dialects and colloquial expressions of Miao and Yao languages,it is found that the linguistic and cultural groups which have planted rice through the ages normally begin the word with a monosyllabic consonant[n-].On the other hand,the language and cultural groups which start the word with initial consonant clusters such as[mpl-],[ntl-]mainly plant dry rice for a long time.In addition,the ancient phonetic construction analyses of the word“Dao zi(rice)”not only provide canonical forms for the homology study between Miao branch and Mian branch,but also expand the new field of language and culture research in the criti⁃cal interpretation of ancient texts in Miao and Yao languages.
