摘要:在许多伊利诺伊州人的语言中,诸如帽子、袋子和背等词中//的凸起的鼻音化变体的分布不能用地理或历史过程来解释;相反,//的凸起变体与说话者所处的社区规模之间的相关性几乎是同构的。一般来说,变异越高,说话者的背景就越城市化。提出的//的变体进行了讨论,因为它们涉及到当代的声音变化,城市分布,和语音环境。(城市方言、声音变化、美式英语、伊利诺伊州。)
ABSTRACT The distribution of raised, nasalized variants of /æ/ in such words as hat, bag, and back in the speech of many Illinoisans cannot be explained by geographical or historical processes; rather the correlations are nearly isomorphic between raised variants of /æ/ and the size of the community in which the speaker was raised. Generally, the higher the variants, the more urban the speaker's background. Raised variants of /æ/ are discussed as they relate to contemporary sound change, to urban distributions, and to phonological context. (Urban dialects, sound change, American English, Illinois.)
