排灣語丹路方言的音韻系統

THE PHONOLOGICAL SYSTEM OF BUTANGLU: A PAIWAN DIALECT

排灣語是臺灣山地土著語言之一，分佈在臺灣省屏東縣的三地、瑪家、來義、泰武、春日、獅子、牡丹和臺東縣的大武、達仁、金峯、太麻里等十一個鄉排灣族同胞所居住的地區。本文所要介紹的丹路（Butanglu）方言，是通行於屏東縣獅子鄉丹路村的一種排灣方言。

This paper is a field report on the phonological system of Butanglu, a hitherto unstudied dialect of the Paiwan language in Formosa. It is a special dialect in preseserving, for example, a voiced velar fricative which, according to Dahl (1973:86-96), may be a reflex of PAN* , rather than a tongue tip trill r as found in the other dialects of Paiwan. The contrasts between t and c, and between d and J are preserved in Butanglu, yet merged in the other dialects. It is also observed that while the other dialects of Paiwan have only four voiceless stops, either /p, t, k, ? /, or /p, t, k, q/, Butanglu has one extra stop which may be explained as borrowing or the result of secondary development. Thus this dialect has five stops /p, t, k, q, ? /.
