本文论述纳西语有动i、?、?三个紧元音,分别与i、?、?三个松元音对立。在具有同样声母、声调的情况下,由于元音紧松的不同而区别词义的情况比较常见。通过与彝语支诸语言的紧松元音进行比较,作者认为汉藏语系语音发展的历史轨迹很可能是先有紧松元音的对立,接着紧元音逐步消失,然后才有促声韵和鼻尾韵出现。

In this paper, we discuss the three tight vowels of Naxi language, which are opposite to the three loose vowels respectively. In the case of the same initials and tones, it is more common to distinguish the meaning of words because of the different vowel tightness. By comparing with the tight-vowel vowels in various languages ​​of Yi language, the author believes that the historical trajectory of phonetic development in the Sino-Tibetan language family is likely to be preceded by the contradiction of tight vowel vowels followed by the gradual disappearance of tight vowels and the promotion of phonological and nasal tone Rhyme appears.
