Abstract AR
تتضمن الدراسات الحديثة للغة الإنكليزية شرحا لظاهرة الوقف الذي يعد سؤالا محيرا في علم اللغة على الرغم من الإتفاق العام بأنه ظاهرة موجودة في اللغة الإنكليزية.
و صمم البحث الحالي – ذو الطبيعة التجريبية – ليبحث بشكل تطبيقي الحالات الصوتية للوقف، و تصنيفها ضمن النظام الصوتي للغة الإنكليزية مقتصرا على الوقف المغلق الذي يعرف بأنه الإرتباط الطبيعي للأصوات المتعاقبة ضمن الكلمات البسيطة.
و تنبعث هذه الدراسة من الملاحظة القائمة على أنه ليس هناك توافق متكامل بين الكلمات نحويا و تركيب سلسلة الأصوات المنطوقة؛ إذ أن الأخير متعلق ببعض الصفات التي يطلق على معاملتها الوتية بأنها وقفية.
و من هنا فإن الشرح الآتي للوقف يعد مثاليا من حيث أنه يعد الموقف فونيما متسلسلا و فوق مقطعي، و أنه تحديث للصوت على الحدود النحوية.
و يعد هذا البحث سبرا في المفاتيح الفيزيائية التي تميز تقسيم سلسلة الكلام إلى وحدات صغيرة من حيث هناك تحديثات صوتية مشروحة لسلسلة الكلام للوحدات اللغوية ذات المعنى.
و ستوضح هذه الدراسة المنظمة للوقف المغلق كيفية تحديد ما إذا كانت المفاتيح الفيزيائية قائمة أم لا، و ماهية كينونتها لتضح حدود المورفيم بطريقة صوتية فيزيائية فيما يخص اللغة الإنكليزية.
Abstract EN
The theoretical and acoustic approach of this research has reached the following conclusions: -Close juncture has a reality that can be described in physical terms.
-Junctural phenomena are differences in the grouping of phonemes into syllables.
-Juncture is remarkably correlated with word boundaries.
-The correlation of juncture with morpheme boundaries is determined by the coincidence of word boundaries with morpheme boundaries.
- There is a potential juncture at word boundaries which may not be realized when uttering the sequence of sounds.
-When there is no phonetic manifestation present, we can say that there is no juncture.
-A given ordered set of phonemes may constitute a bounded sequence.
-Each bounded sequence starts and ends with a marginal allophone.
-Within the hierarchical phonological structure of the language, the bounded sequence appears as a higher- level unit than the phoneme.
-A distribution of a sequence of segmental phonemes between different bounded sequences is possible when the phoneme sequence in question may occur as final and initial sounds as the acoustic analysis of the pair night-rate and nitrate shows; where a medial allophone of l t l in night-rate and in nitrate, the medial allophone of l aI l is followed by the initial allophone of l tr l.
-The acoustic analysis shows that some pairs like aboard and a broad are not differentiated phonetically, although they are different morphologically and lexically as both contain a sequence of a non- final allophone l l followed by an initial allophone of l b l.
-To determine whether a juncture has occurred, two factors must be taken into consideration; the nature of the segmental allophones and the intensity and duration pattern of phonemes.
-Initial voiced stops are considerably longer than initial voiceless stops and the voicing within the voiced stop decreases before the plosive release.
-Initial allophones of fricatives are longer than medial allophones and the intensity within the production of an initial allophone of a continuant increases and it decreases during a final allophone.
-Initial allophones of nasals are usually longer than medial ones and the length of the final nasal depends on the occurrence of a vowel ,i.e.
the nasal is longer after a short vowel.
-Initial l w l is voiced and it is devoiced when it follows an initial stop because of aspiration.
-When l l l occurs medially, it resembles a medial l n l in intensity and duration.
-There is a kind of lengthening concerning final vowels which decays gradually in energy.
