중국어 en의 변이음에 대한 음향학적 분석과 한국인 학습자의 조음 양상에 대한 연구

Abstract

Acoustic analysis about allophone of Chinese /en/ and research about aspect of articulation of Korean learner. The purpose of this study is to investigate discuss some possibility of allophones in Chinese central vowel /en/, focusing on /en/ being combine with blade-palatal, and discuss about how to applied in the education of Chinese pronunciation through conducty experiments with Korean Chinese learners. As for experimental material, the audio sample extracted from the audio material in Chinese textbooks was analized using the average ㎐ of F1 and F2, absolute values(Δ[F2-F1]), Euclidean distances. Aspect of articulation of /en/ and the existence of allophones are inverigated. As a result, it was observed that the articulation position of the /en/ was changed according to the combination of various consonants. The articulation position of /ren/ and /zhen/ is located within front vowel /e/ articulation scope and labial and dental vowels are located within central vowel /ən/ scope. Also, the the Euclidean distances of these two groups are larger than that of /e/ and /ɛ/. Thus, there is a possibility of allophones in the vowel /ən/. As a result of the experiments with Korean Chinese learners, it was found that the Korean Chinese learners tend to pronounce /en/ similar to the way of articulating “언” in Korean no matter how combinded with any consonants. These finding gives pedagogical implications that it needs to teach students the possibility of /ən/ allophones in class, so that it Fay help the learners to prevent a mother tongue transfer.
