Linguistic Research of Pre-Classical Mongolian Materials

本研究的主要目的是将蒙古语前古典材料制作成电子文本，并借助计算机进行分析，探讨其语言特点。蒙古文《孝经》（13-14世纪）、《汉蒙通鉴》（14世纪）等资料，已输入计算机，形成带有语法信息的罗马化文本。在这些资料中，《夏经》的词频表、词缀索引表、语境对照表（KWIC）已作为本研究的成果出版。本研究的新发现如下：1.蒙古文“taw”和“daleth”与后来的“书面蒙古文”规范有着明显的区别和不同的用法。“c”和“j”字在字中间部分区分，这被认为是蒙古文的后期特征.词尾-da/-de、-ta/-te附加在以元音和辅音“d”结尾的词干上，而词尾-a/-e附加在其他类型的词干上。同样的情况也可以用消融后缀-daca/-dece、-taca/-tece和后缀-aca/-ece来指出。

The main purpose of this reseach is to make electric texts of pre-classical Mongolian materials, to analyze them by the aid of computer, and to investigate their linguistic characteristics. Such Mongolian materials as Hsiao-ching (13-14 centuries) and Sino-Mongolian Inscriptions (14 centuries) have been put into computer in the shape of romanized texts with grammatical informations. Out of these materials, the wordlist with frequencies, word-and suffix-index, and condordance with contexts (KWIC) of Hsia-ching have been published as the result of this research. The followings can be pointed out as the new findings :1. The Mongoligan characters "taw" and "daleth" are distinctly distinguished and used in the different way from the later norm of "Written Mongolian".2. The characters "c" and "j" are partially distinguished in the middle of word, which is considered the later characteristic of Written Mongolian.3. The Dative-suffixes -da/-de, -ta/-te attach to the stems which end in vowerls and consonat "d", whereas the suffix -a/-e attaches to the other kind of stems. The same can be pointed out with the Ablative-suffixes -daca/-dece, -taca/-tece and the suffix -aca/-ece.
