布依语—英语语音对比研究

论文摘要

布依语和英语的对比研究还未引起语言学家的过多重视。随着我国改革开放的深入,布依族地区的学生也要求至少学一门外语,如英语。如何提高这些少数民族学生的英语语音水平已引起一些老师的注意。本文对英语和布依语的语音进行系统比较,旨在为布依族地区的英语教学,甚至为双语词典（英-布依/布依-英）的编纂提供一些借鉴。同时本文也能帮助其他民族的人士了解布依族语言,特别是语音的特征。全文共分为六章:第一章是对国内外语音对比的一个回顾。正文部分包括第二章到第五章。第二章指出了语音对比的基础:物理、生理和社会基础。第三章对这两种语言的元音进行了详细的对比描述。第四章对它们的辅音进行了详细对比描述。第五章对它们的超切分特征进行了对比。第六章是结论,也是文章研究要点的总揽。结论最后部分还提出了对语言（特别是语音）教学的几点建议,并指出了本文研究的不足之处。
