[SR: 3714421], Paperback, [EAN: 9780883120088], Summer Institute of Linguistics, English, English, English, Summer Institute of Linguistics, Book, Summer Institute of Linguistics, 1988-06-01, Summer Institute of Linguistics, This study addresses one of the oldest topics in language analysis. While considering a thorough analysis of the sound system to be a prerequisite for developing an orthography is the current linguistic approach, the tradition at the time Dinka was first written appears to have been somewhat different. This difference is reflected in some aspects left unresolved in the analysis of Dinka vowel system. These aspects include a lack of a precise definition of breathiness and the role it and others like vowel length, tone, and centralized vowels play in the language. This thesis is, thus, a response to the unresolved questions.The first part of the thesis advances an outline of the phonology of Dinka. The second part handles the definition of breathiness and its role in the language. The third part investigates the roles of vowel length, tone, and centralized vowels.The investigations show that: a. Breathiness in Dinka is distinctive as opposed to phonetic.b. There are 78 distinctive vowel sounds in Dinka.Table of ContentsPrefaceIntroductionAn Overview of Dinka Phonological Structure2.1 The Phonological Sentence2.1.1 Statement2.1.2 Imperative2.1.3 Subordinate Clause2.1.4 Interrogative2.2 The Phonological Word2.3 The Syllable2.3.1 Syllable Types2.3.2 Syllable Distribution2.4 The Sounds2.4.1 Consonants2.4.2 VowelsBreathy Versus Nonbreathy Vowels3.1Previous Work on Dinka3.1.1 Orthographic Approach3.1.2 Linguistic Approach3.1.3 Vowel Harmony Approach3.1.4 Recent Analysis3.2The Breathy and Nonbreathy Vowel Problem3.2.1 Physiology of Breathy and Nonbreathy Vowels3.2.2 Lexical-level Contrast between Breathy and Nonbreathy Vowels3.2.3 Grammatical Roles of Breathy and Nonbreathy VowelsAcoustic Characteristics of Breathy and Nonbreathy VowelsTone5.1Tone Background5.2Tone in Dinka5.3Vowel Distribution in Relation to Tone5.4Tone FunctionsVowel Length6.1Long Vowel at the Lexical Level6.2Distribution of Long Vowels in Relation to Consonants6.3Distribution of Long Vowels in Relation to Tone6.4The Function of Long Vowels at the Grammatical Level6.4.1 Third Person Singular/Plural Distinction6.4.2 Singular/Plural Noun Formation6.4.3 Prepositional SubstitutionCentralized Vowels7.1Centralized Vowels and Unreleased Consonants7.2Centralized Vowels at the Grammatical LevelSummary and ConclusionAppendixBibliographyIllustrations1.
