项目摘要

This project aimed at investigating a type of language variation called 'inter-language/-dialect' which is observed in dialects of Japanese. The main conclusions and focus points are as follows : (1)The effect of speakers' social variables on the sentence final prosody is discussed, based on the findings of an auditory experiment. It is suggested that young speakers seem to establish a new norm for using pitch accent patterns. (2)From the variation analysis of the speech of 2^<nd> and 3^<rd> generation Japanese Canadians, social factors such as phase of migration, age of migration, and social network in residential areas, are seen to have strong effects on the change of their speech. (3)The Extended Constant Rate Hypothesis is proposed by re-investigating the relationship between language change and age-grading which is observed in zero-marking of the accusative case amongst Tokyo Japanese. (4)Considering the prosody of Hokkaido dialect in spontaneous discourse, we find that it is the register that causes the variation of prosodic emphasis placed on the negative nai. (5)By comparing the results of other surveys with the data on natural discourse of Fukuoka dialect collected by this project, we find that some contextual factors are relevant to the use of dialectal features. (6)The process of prosody acquisition in the case of super-learners of Japanese is investigated, in terms of the differences in the course of acquiring the pitch accent of compound nouns between native Japanese speakers and learners of Japanese. (7)Attempts are made to identify inter-dialectal features in Minami Daito Jima and the Bonin Islands. The linguistic system of the former dialect shows evidence of inter-dialectal features caused by contact between Ryukyu dialect and Hachijo dialect. Meanwhile, Bonin island dialect is proved to have a system derived-from language contact between Bonin English and Bonin-koine Japanese.

该项目旨在研究在日语方言中观察到的一种称为“间语言/方言”的语言变异。主要结论和重点如下：(1)基于听觉实验的结果，讨论了说话人的社会变量对句尾韵律的影响。有人认为，年轻的演讲者似乎建立了使用音调重音模式的新规范。 (2)从第2代和第3代日裔加拿大人的言语变异分析来看，移民阶段、移民年龄、居住区社交网络等社会因素对语言的影响较强。对其言语变化的影响。 (3)通过重新研究东京日本人宾格零标记中观察到的语言变化与年龄分级之间的关系，提出了扩展恒定率假说。 (4)考虑到北海道方言在自发话语中的韵律,我们发现正是语域导致了否定“奈”的韵律重心的变化。 (5)通过将其他调查结果与本项目收集的福冈方言自然话语数据进行比较，我们发现一些语境因素与方言特征的使用有关。 (6)针对日语母语者与日语学习者习得复合名词音高重音过程的差异,考察了超级日语学习者的韵律习得过程。 (7)尝试识别南大东岛和小笠原群岛的方言间特征。前方言的语言系统显示出琉球方言与八丈方言接触而产生的方言间特征。同时，小笠原岛方言也被证明有一个由小笠原英语和小笠原通用日语之间的语言接触衍生而来的系统。
