| الملخص: | Rebgong Amdo Tibetan is that variety of Amdo Tibetan (ISO 639-3 code
adx) spoken in Tongren County, Huangnan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture,
Qinghai Province, in north-west China. Most analyses of Amdo Tibetan dialects
report a marginal three-way contrast between voiced, voiceless unaspirated, and
voiceless aspirated stops and affricates at each place of articulation. The present
analysis posits only two contrastive series for Rebgong Amdo Tibetan, in agreement
with Janhunen & Kalsang Norbu’s (1999) analysis of rDo-sbis Amdo Tibetan.
Reports that many other Amdo dialects show the same restrictions on the
distribution of these sounds suggest that this analysis might likewise apply to other
varieties of Amdo Tibetan. Comparison with discussions of Classical Tibetan and
Proto-Tibeto-Burman further suggest that Amdo Tibetan may have always only had
this two-way contrast. |
