本文分析了日语中的外来词重读现象,重点分析了外来词重读与母语重读的关系。乍看之下,外来词的重音模式与本族语有很大的不同,前者的重音模式比非重音模式更受欢迎,而后者则不然。我们目前的统计证据表明,这种印象不能经验支持。外来词在语音结构上与本族语不同,特别是在大量的重音节和元音上。如果这些差异得到适当的控制,这两种类型的话,无论是词汇重音或非重音,表现出非常相似的口音模式和偏好,虽然外来词仍然表现出更强的倾向于重音模式比本地话。这一研究也为外来词文献中的语音学与音韵学之争提供了重要的启示。我们将证明,感知和语音因素相互作用,在一个非常有趣的方式与第一个因素确定的整体音高形状的外来词,然后由接收语言的韵律系统,以产生一个适当的输出形式的约束。
In this paper we analyze loanword accentuation in Japanese with main focus on its relation with native accentuation. At first glance, loanwords display remarkably different accent patterns from native words, with the former but not the latter favoring the accented pattern over the unaccented one. We present statistical evidence that this impression cannot empirically be supported. Loanwords differ from native words in several phonological structures, notably in the abundance of heavy syllables and epenthetic vowels. If these differences are properly controlled, the two types of words, whether lexically accented or unaccented, exhibit very similar accent patterns and preferences although loanwords still show a stronger tendency towards the accented pattern than native words. This study provides a significant implication for the phonetics vs. phonology controversy in the loanword literature, too. We will demonstrate that perceptual and phonological factors interact with each other in a very interesting way with the first factor determining the overall pitch shape of loanwords, which is then constrained by the prosodic system of the recipient language to yield an appropriate output form.
