当外来词被引入韩国语时,一些修饰会影响它们的发音结构。我们特别考虑了词尾停顿、液体、不发音的冠状音节和发音的冠状音节的适应。这些特殊的表现被证明与它们在接收语言的音节结构中所占的位置有关,而不是像看起来的那样,与源语言的对比类别或接收语言的语音质量有关。因此,这一讨论有助于对听者在源语中可能具有对比性但在接受者中可能具有冗余性(因此可能低于分类感知的阈值)的意识的持续争论,反之亦然,它提供了一个统一的观点,即在母语和外来词的语音处理中似乎起作用的因素。基础是一个简单而全面的语音感知原则:语音表征是根据听者母语的显著感知类别来解释的。
A number of modifications affect the sound structure of foreign words as they are borrowed into Korean. We consider specifically the adaptation of word-final stops, liquids, and voiceless as well as voiced coronal sibilants. The particular manifestation of these is shown to correlate with the place they hold in the syllable structure of the recipient language rather than, as might seem to be the case, with either contrastive categories of the source language or allophonic qualities of the recipient. This discussion thus contributes to the continuing debate over the awareness that listeners may have of phonetic properties that are contrastive in the source language but redundant in the recipient (and hence presumably below the threshold of categorical perception), as well as vice versa, and it offers a unified view of the factors which appear to be at play in the phonological processing of both native words and loanwords. At base is a simple yet comprehensive principle of phonological perception: Phonetic representations are interpreted according to the salient perceptual categories of the listener's native language.
