Abstract

This article assesses five proposals for the development of Tibetic zl, which has modern reflexes including Lhasa Tibetan /_(ⁿ)d/. My assessment considers on their ability to account for zl’s modern reflexes, their plausibility from the perspective of phonetics, and their congruence with typological observations. I conclude that, at present, Bialek (2018)’s proposal is the most plausible. However, future research may produce comparative evidence that support Gong (2016)’s proposal. At the end, I outline a methodology for investigating the role of functional load in Tibetic consonant cluster mergers.

提贝特语中 zl 的发展

本文评估了关于藏语zl发展的五种建议，zl具有包括拉萨藏语/_(ⁿ)d/在内的现代条件反射。我的评估考虑了它们解释zl的现代反射的能力、从语音学角度看它们的合理性以及它们与类型学观察的一致性。我的结论是，目前，Bialek（2018 年）的提议是最合理的。不过，未来的研究可能会产生支持 Gong（2016）提议的比较证据。最后，我概述了研究功能负荷在提贝特辅音群合并中的作用的方法。

期刊介绍： The Cahiers is an international linguistics journal whose mission is to publish new and original research on the analysis of languages of the Asian region, be they descriptive or theoretical. This clearly reflects the broad research domain of our laboratory : the Centre for Linguistic Research on East Asian Languages (CRLAO). The journal was created in 1977 by Viviane Alleton and Alain Peyraube and has been directed by three successive teams of editors, all professors based at the CRLAO in Paris. An Editorial Board, composed of scholars from around the world, assists in the reviewing process and in a consultative role.
