苏格兰盖尔语的东萨瑟兰方言正在消亡,它在两种句法环境中表现出语法变化,即被动语态和格系统。变化的速度之快足以显示最年长和最年轻的流利使用者之间的明显差异,跨度仅为40多年。这使得我们可以考虑变化的方向、变化的过程和变化的速度,以及终端说话者在系统的语言描述和历史重建中的效用。
The dying East Sutherland dialect of Scottish Gaelic shows grammatical change currently in progress in two syntactic environments, the passive and the case system. The rate of change has been rapid enough to show clear differences between the usage of the oldest and the youngest fluent speakers available, a span of just over 40 years. This permits the consideration of questions about the direction of change, the processes of change, and the rate of change, and of the utility of terminal speakers for systematic language description and historical reconstruction.
