好专业啊,学习一下。
正好,俺还想请教老爷车一个问题:是不是一个辅音必配合一个元音的语言(例如日语),说起来就“优美”?从语言学的角度讲,有没有判断一种语言是否“优美”(或者说易说好听)的标准呢?
从语言学的角度讲,语言没有优劣之分。至于某种语言是否优美或好听,搞语言学的似乎没人会这么说,不过,搞语言教学的倒是喜欢讨论这种问题。
Vowel
In phonetics, a vowel is a sound in spoken language that is characterized by an open configuration of the vocal tract, in contrast to consonants, which are characterized by a constriction or closure at one or more points along the vocal tract. The word vowel comes from the Latin word vocalis, meaning "uttering voice" or "speaking". Vowels usually form the peak or nucleus of a syllable, whereas consonants form the onset and coda. However, some languages allow sounds that wouldn't normally be classified as vowels to form the nucleus of a syllable, such as the sound of m in the English word prism, or the sound of r in the Czech word vrba (meaning "willow"). Sometimes vowels are defined by whether they form the nucleus of a syllable, and by that criterion these sounds are vowels, but usually sounds that can form the nucleus of a syllable are called sonorants. (In some languages, such as Tashlhyt Berber and Oowekyala, non-sonorant consonants can also form the nucleus of a syllable.)
