摘要

丁卡语是一种以单音节为主、高度融合的西尼罗河语言，在丁卡语中，词根元音质量的变化与元音长度、音质和声调的变化一起，在动词形态中起着重要的系统作用。早期的研究表明，在简单及物动词的屈折变化中，元音质量的变化符合一个由三个元音等级组成的元音高度分级系统。本文表明，这种元音分级系统也适用于带及物词根的衍生动词的形态，但有一定的修饰。其中包括元音等级的不同分布，以及语音质量转变为呼吸语音的相互作用。

Vowel quality alternation in Dinka verb derivation: The Agar variety

Abstract In Dinka, a predominantly monosyllabic and highly fusional Western Nilotic language, vowel quality alternation in the root plays a major and systematic role in the morphology of verbs, together with alternations in vowel length, voice quality, and tone. Earlier work has shown that in the inflection of simple, i.e., underived, transitive verbs, the vowel quality alternation conforms to a vowel height gradation system with three vowel grades. The present article shows that this vowel gradation system is also operative in the morphology of derived verbs with a transitive root, but with certain modifications. These include a different distribution of the vowel grades and interaction with a shift in voice quality, to breathy voice.
