摘要

Xitsonga 是南非的一种南方班图语（S53），拥有丰富的语音模式，但文献中对其报道较少。本文旨在以现有文献为基础，概述 Xitsonga 语的语音学，重点是分段语音学。锡通噶的辅音显示了四向喉音系统，声母和几个侧辅音的发音对比鲜明。这些辅音显示出后鼻音变硬、颤音和侧鼻音交替的现象。此外，还对元音升高和元音凝聚进行了研究。对以前研究中的变异数据进行了更新，以反映当代锡通加语中词汇项目的状况。

Xitsonga segmental phonology

Xitsonga, a southern Bantu language (S53) spoken in South Africa, possesses rich phonological patterns that have been underreported in the literature. This paper aims to provide an overview of the phonology of Xitsonga with a focus on segmental phonology, building up on existing literature. The consonants of Xitsonga show a four-way laryngeal system with phonation contrast in sonorants and several lateral consonants. These consonants display alternations of post-nasal hardening, affrication, and lateral-nasal alternation. Vowel raising and vowel coalescence are also examined. Data with variation from previous studies have been updated to reflect the status of lexical items in contemporary Xitsonga.
