吳音에 나타나는 3等甲類韻의 直音表記에 대하여

Abstract

Since 3rd rhymes including Medial "i," which is a shifted midway sound, it may be seen in the form of shifted sound either in Sino-japanese Go'on or Kan'on. These rhymes, however, have retained the sound of letters represented by direct sounds. In this article, the following results are drawn, by close analyzing Sino-japanese Go'on data remaining the sound forms of letters in patterns of direct sound in 3rd rhymes including Medial-i from modern Sino-Japanese dictionaries. 1) The direct phonetic forms appearing in the whole 3rd rhymes including Medial-i can be defined as Sino-Japanese Go'on because it is the form of letters' sounds prior to complete settling of the shifted sounds transcription. 2) It is a principle to transcribe less than 2 mora in Sino-Japanese Go'on. The sounds of letter which can be just transcribed with 2 mora may be represented with 1 mora following the habit of Sino-Japanese Ko'on. 3) To reflect the original sound, when more than 2 mora is marked, one of the characteristics of shifted-sounds, conjunct openings and main vowels is discarded, and it is inclined to made it mark less than 2 mora by choosing others. 4) It is judged for an inscription of direct sounds, conjunctions and sound division from expletive rhyme-U(虞․尤) in 3rd rhymes including Medial-i to be developed as following process. 5) Direct sound inscription in 3rd rhymes including Medial-i significantly comes out in the row of sound-s&l and partially in the row of sound-t. Judging from this phase, it is concluded the row of sound-l was formed lately.
