Лолойские языки: различия между версиями

}}

 

'''Лолойские языки''', также известны как '''Нгви''' или в Китае как '''[[И (народ)|И]]''', группа от 50 до 100 языков в Тибето-бирманских языках. Они очень близки к Бирманским языкам. Обе Лолойские и бирманские ветви языков хорошо объединены в Лоло-бирманские языки. However, subclassification is more contentious. Все Лолойские языки подвергались влиянию мон-кхмерских языков.<ref>Thurgood & LaPolla, 2003, ''The Sino-Tibetan languages'', p. 9</ref>

 

''Loloish'' is the traditional name for the family. Some publications avoid the term under the misapprehension that ''Lolo'' is pejorative. ''Lolo'' is the Chinese name for the Yi people, but it is only pejorative when written with a particular Chinese character (one that uses a beast rather than human radical), and that practice has been stopped in China.<ref>Benedict, Paul K. (1987). "[http://sealang.net/sala/archives/pdf8/benedict1987autonyms.pdf Autonyms: ought or ought not]." ''Linguistics of the Tibeto-Burman Area'' 10: 188. Italics in original.</ref> (See [[Yi people]].)

 

Loloish is traditionally divided into a northern branch, with Lisu and the numerous [[Yi languages]], and a southern branch, with everything else. However, per Thurgood (2003:8) there is also a central branch, with languages from both northern and southern. Bradley (2002) adds a fourth, southeastern branch:

 

 

The [[Tujia language]] is difficult to classify due to massive influence from both Yi and Chinese. However, it may turn out to be a Loloish language. [[Bai language|Bai]] also has numerous connections to Loloish, but its oldest core of vocabulary appears to be [[Old Chinese]], and so it may be a [[Sinitic languages|Sinitic]] rather than Loloish language. Other unclassified Loloish languages are [[Gokhy language|Gokhy]] (Gɔkhý) and [[Zauzou language|Zauzou]].
