本文概述了藏缅语缅甸分支及其组成部分的各种名称的历史。一些突出的语音发展,区分缅甸从其他TB亚群和一些进一步的内部发展简要举例说明。形态重建Burmic,这是广泛得多,比发现在许多其他TB分支,进行了讨论。本文还介绍了缅甸语动词词尾TB的主要句法特征,并沿着列举了各种句法标记的重构形式。一些词汇差异的例子提供证据,缅甸作为一个单独的组内TB和分组内缅甸。本文还在附录中提供了Swadesh 100字表的缅甸语形式,并给出了缅甸语和Ngwi三个主要分支的代表语言的重建词源和形式。下文引用的例子与本附录中表格的编号有关。
The history of the various names used for the Burmic branch of Tibeto-Burman (TB) and its components are outlined. Some salient phonological developments which differentiate Burmic from other TB subgroups and some further internal developments are briefly exemplified. The morphology reconstructible for Burmic, which is much less extensive than that found in many other TB branches, is discussed. The main syntactic characteristics of Burmic, typical of verb-final TB, are given, along with the reconstructed forms for various syntactic markers. Some examples of lexical differences providing evidence for Burmic as a separate group within TB and for subgrouping within Burmic are presented. The paper also provides the Burmic forms for the Swadesh 100-word list in an appendix, giving reconstructed etyma and forms from Burmese and from representative languages in the three main branches of Ngwi. Examples are cited below with reference to the numbers of the forms in this appendix.
