昆明童谣的语言特点及功能研究

A Study on the Linguistic Characteristics and Functions of Kunming Nursery Rhymes

摘要: 本文以昆明地区传统童谣文本为主要材料，从语音、语汇和句式三个层面考察其语言特点，并结合儿童语言习得与社会语言学视角分析其功能。研究发现：昆明童谣通过排韵、随韵、换韵等形式形成鲜明的节奏感；方言物产词、动作词和叠音词增强了地域性、形象性与儿童可接受性；长短句、整散句的交织使其兼具口语性和音乐性。方言词汇不仅记录地方生活经验，也参与地方身份认同和文化记忆的建构。本文在描述语言现象的基础上，对昆明童谣的教育功能、民俗表达功能及其传承路径作出讨论。

Abstract: Drawing on traditional nursery rhyme texts from the Kunming region, this study examines their linguistic features at the phonological, lexical, and syntactic levels and analyzes their functions from the perspectives of child language acquisition and sociolinguistics. The findings indicate that Kunming nursery rhymes achieve a distinctive rhythm through varied rhyme schemes, including consecutive rhyme, couplet rhyme, and rhyme alternation. Dialectal terms denoting local products, action verbs, and reduplicated forms enhance the regional flavor, vividness, and child-friendliness of the texts. The interweaving of long and short sentences and of regular and irregular sentence patterns endows these rhymes with both colloquial and musical qualities. Furthermore, dialectal vocabulary not only records local life experiences but also participates in the construction of local identity and cultural memory. On the basis of this linguistic description, the study further explores the educational functions, folkloric expressive functions, and transmission pathways of Kunming nursery rhymes.
