AN EXPERIMENTAL ANALYSIS OF THE PHENOMENON OF DELETION OF THE CONSONANT R IN BAICHENG COUNTY DIALECT OF MODERN UYGHUR LANGUAGE BASED ON FIELD SURVEY

Abstract

One of the contextual variations in the Uyghur language stream is the deletion of vowels, which leads to long vowelization. However, in Baicheng county dialect of modern Uyghur language, apart from the long vowelization of vowels resulting from the deletion of consonants, there is also the phenomenon of non-long vowelization of vowels. If the individual words resulting from the deletion of the consonant [r] is used alone, it may have the effect of distinguishing meaning, but when the word is used in the groups of words, phrases or sentences, it returns to its pre-deletion meaning according to the context and does not have the effect of distinguishing meaning.
