This paper discusses the regular Chinese phonological correspondences based on a statistical approach as well as the application on teaching and learning the Chinese character-sound correspondences.
The phonological correspondences came into being since the development of sounds follows a particular pattern among related languages. Understanding of the correspondence rules will help teaching and learning languages.
Most learners are able to distinguish the sound differences between two languages; however, this is mainly impressionistic association, and thus it is highly possible for learners to yield incorrect sound mappings.
Our research data are based on the phonological words in Dictionary of Common Words in Taiwan Southern Min and Dictionary of Common Words in Taiwan Hakka, and their corresponding Mandarin sounds in Dictionary of Variant Chinese Characters, made available by Ministry of Education, and their corresponding Middle Chinese sounds. Our character-sound correspondence rules are formulated from a comparison among the data, and the correspondences can be reformulated as the second language learning rules.
We provide a method to map characters and sounds for assisting people to capture the sound corresponding rules among different but related languages. All the sound correspondences among those languages are arranged on pivot tables in Excel in order to search and skim the statistics and the original data.
