缅甸语 ,简称缅语(緬甸語:မြန်မာဘာသာ,缅甸语委转写:Mranma bhasa,发音:[mjəmà bàθà])属汉藏语系藏缅语族,以仰光音为标准。它是缅甸联邦的官方语言,在該國有大约3200万人使用,而且在孟加拉国、马来西亚、泰国、美国也有少量分布。
入聲獨立算的話,缅甸语一共有四个声调,分别是高平、高降、低平、高降喉塞。
缅甸文字的特征是它呈圆形,這是因為古時候的緬甸文是書寫在棕櫚葉上的,必須設計圓弧形的筆劃才能避免劃破葉面。字符的構成是以輔音字母與元音拼合後形成音節符號。
历史演变
[编辑]缅甸文在某种程度上代表古缅甸语,因此可以用缅甸文的罗马转写来推测古缅甸文的发音,从此也可以看出其与仰光话之间的巨大的区别。
緬甸文的拉丁字母轉寫方案主要有John Okell制定的Okell拼音,緬甸語委會制定的語委拼音等。
音系
[编辑]声调
[编辑]古缅甸语有三个声调,但其在12世纪的确切音值不清楚。仰光话按調值分保持了這三個聲調:
- 第一声:低平调334(在开音节中,用短元音符号表示,在闭音节中,在基本辅音之下加一个点)
- 第二声:高平调554(在音节后加双空心点符号)
- 第三声:高降调53(在开音节中,用长元音符号表示,在闭音节中,没有特殊的符号)
古缅甸文的塞音韵尾演变成喉塞音,可以算作第四个声调,但其調值和第三聲53一樣。
聲調 | 緬文名 | 國際音標 (a的聲調) | 標記 (附加於a) | 特徵 | 延時 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
低平 | နိမ့်သံ | [aː˧˧˦] | à | 慣常 | 中 |
高平 | တက်သံ | [aː˥˥˦] | á | 有時略帶氣聲 | 長 |
高降 | သက်သံ | [aˀ˥˧] | a̰ | 緊喉音,有時略帶喉塞 | 中 |
高降喉塞 | တိုင်သံ | [ăʔ˥˧] | aʔ | 帶喉塞 | 短 |
古缅甸文的鼻音韵尾演变成鼻化元音,調值可以是上面三個中的任何一個。
韻尾
[编辑]古緬甸語的陽聲韻的韻尾在現代仰光話中一律合并爲一個鼻音-ɴ,仰光話拉丁轉寫用-n表示。古緬甸語的入聲韻的韻尾在現代仰光話中一律合并爲一個喉塞音-ʔ,仰光話拉丁轉寫用-t表示。
辅音
[编辑]双唇音 | 齿音 | 齿龈音 | 舌面音 和软颚音 | 硬颚音和 唇化舌根音 | 喉音 | 无发音部位 | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
塞音和塞擦音 | pʰ p b | tʰ t d | tʃʰ tʃ dʒ | kʰ k g | ʔ | ||
鼻音 | m̥ m | n̥ n | ɲ̥ ɲ | ŋ̊ ŋ | ~ (鼻化元音) | ||
擦音 | θ (ð) | sʰ s z | ʃ | h | |||
半元音 | (r) | j | (ʍ) w | ||||
