Abstract

It has been claimed in literature that segments at root-internal are more resistant to phonological processes than segments at other positions of words. According to Pater (1999), nasal substitution in Indonesian language is not realised within the morphemes even though there is a sequence of nasal and voiceless obstruent, for example, the word /empat/ is realised as [əmpat]. However, the occurrence of the sequence across morphemes for instance, at prefix-root boundaries is resolved by nasal substitution. For example, /məŋ+pukul/ is realised as [məmukul]. In this paper, the resistance of root-internal segments to phonological processes is questioned. Evidences from two Malay dialects i.e. Kelantan and Negeri Sembilan show that root-internal segments are not exempted from undergoing some phonological processes to eliminate nasal and voiceless obstruent clusters. For instance, roots like /bantal/ and /ʤəmput/ are realised as [bata:] and [ʤaput] in Kelantan and Negeri Sembilan dialects respectively.

调查词根的忠诚要求:来自马来方言的证据。

据文献报道，词根内部的音段比单词其他位置的音段更能抵抗语音过程。根据Pater(1999)的研究，印尼语中的鼻音替换在语素中是不实现的，即使有一系列鼻音和不发音的阻塞，例如，单词/empat/被实现为[/ mpat]。然而，跨语素序列的出现，例如，在前缀-词根边界，可以通过鼻音替换来解决。例如，/m æ n n +pukul/被读作[m æ mukul]。本文对词根内段对语音过程的抵抗提出了质疑。来自吉兰丹和森美兰州两种马来方言的证据表明，根内段并没有免除一些语音过程，以消除鼻音和不发音的阻塞簇。例如，像/bantal/和/ / mput/这样的词根在吉兰丹和森美兰州方言中分别被理解为[bata:]和[aput]。

期刊介绍： The aim of the journal DIALECTOLOGIA is to join the experiences of researchers working in different fields of Dialectology (linguistic variation, geolinguistics, methodology, synchronic and diachronic dialectal data, new technologies, social dialectology, etc). -It is a double-blind external peer-reviewed journal, published twice yearly, that complies with the norms of the Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology (FECYT). -Each issue features 4/6 previously unpublished articles on original topics relating to linguistic variation. -It includes also book reviews and news about congresses, meetings and recent publications. -Original papers will be evaluated within a period of three months. -The journal does not charge fees to authors either for processing (APC) or for the publication of articles. -The author will remain owner of the intellectual property of the works, however access to them is totally open and free, so they can be reproduced in whole or in part with the only limitation of recognizing the authorship and the source of publication ("Dialectologia. Revista electrònica"), provided that such exploitation is not of a commercial nature.
