《华文字典》与《国语辞典简编本》一字多音比较研究 A Comparative Study of the Mandarin Pronunciations in Hua Wen Zi Dian and Guo Yu Ci Dian Jian Bian Ben Dictionaries

Abstract

《华文字典》为马来西亚华文教育网所提供之线上汉字辞书，该字典提供“部首检字“与“拼音索引”两种查找方式，各字目同时以汉语拼音与注音符号标音，并附有该字之详细释义，但该辞书一字多音的收录音读却与其他同样以学龄孩童为适用对象的辞书大有差异。

语音的演变有其规律，辞书音读的收录亦有其根据。本文以《广韵》又音切语探析《华文字典》与《国语辞典简编本》一字多音收录音读的相异现象，上溯多音字音读的来源，归纳其差异呈现为某一辞书合并或未收音义所致，此情况不符合辞书收录音读应重视脉络之原则，值得深入探讨。

Hua Wen Zi Dian is an online Chinese dictionary made available by Malaysian Chinese Education Network. It provides two search methods based on "radical search" and "pinyin index". Each word is also marked with Chinese pinyin and phonetic symbols. There is a detailed interpretation of each word, but the dictionary-recorded Mandarin pronunciations are very different from that of other dictionaries designed for school children. The evolution of pronunciations has its own patterns, and dictionary editing also has its rules.

This paper analyses the differences between Hua Wen Zi Dian and Guo Yu Ci Dian Jian Bian Ben in one-word multi-tone recording with reference to Guang Yun. Tracing the source of pronunciations for multi-tone words, it is found that the differences are caused by negligence due to merger or unrecorded meanings by certain dictionaries. In view of the violations of the principles of dictionary editing, an in-depth study is therefore warranted.
