从语言学角度探讨仡央语族群的历史来源

仡央语支是侗台语族属下的一支新设立的语支,包括仡佬、木佬、拉基、布央、普标、拉哈等语言,使用仡央语言的“仡央语族群”分布在黔滇桂及越南北部地区,本文通过比较古籍文献资料,认为仡央语言与古代百越语关系密切,现代“仡央语族群”来源于古代百越.又通过与台(壮傣)、侗水、黎三支侗台语言比较,发现仡央语言与黎、临高、侗水等现代并无接触往来的语言具有许多独特的共同成分,从而确定“仡央语族群”是古代岭南一支百越人的后裔.

A Linguistic Approach to the Origin of the Ge-Yang(outlier Kam -Tai)

The Ge - Yang language group belongs to the Kam - Tai language branch, including the Gelao, Mulao, Laji,Buyang, Pubiao, Laha and some other languages. The Ge - Yang groups are distributed in Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi of China and in the north of Vietnam. Through a study of the ancient works, the author concludes that the Ce - Yang language group has a close connection with the ancient Bai - Yue language group and the Ge - Yang gn,ups are the offspring of the ancient Bai - Yue. A comparison of the Ge - Yang language group and three sub - branches (Tai, KaIn - Sui and Li) of the Kam - Tai language branch reveals the fact that the Ge - Yang langnages share many typical linguislic features with the Li, Lin - Gao and Kam - Sui languages, which do not have any contacl with them in modern times, and lhaI the Ge - Yang groups must be the descendants of one group of the ancient Bai - Yue.
