Zusammenfassung: | <p>The author deals systematically and exhaustively for the first time with one of the most individual phonetic phenomena in Transylvanian Saxon, which has been mentioned by many investigators during the last hundred and fifty years, though only summarily. In the first section a number of examples are given from all kinds of inflectional endings, single words and formative syllables to illustrate the basic rule for the elision of final-n in Transylvanian, (The -n in most inflectional endings and in the stem of a number of words is elided before all consonants except h, n, d, t and ts in normal speech and in composita). The exceptions are then enumerated, these ocurring frequently when the -n has become final more recently, as a result of various phonetic or morphological developments in the dialect. Then the difficulties involved in a survey of this phenomenon by means of the Wenkersätze are outlined in order to demonstrate that this law and its exceptions have developed through the interaction of physiological, morphological and semantic factors. The second section treats of a completely different phenomenon observed in northern Transylvanian, where final -n is elided after certain groups of sounds (thus not before certain consonants), not just in the flow of speech but in all positions of the word. Finally the problem of a similar or like phenomenon in the dialects of the main German speech area is discussed, and it is established that it must have prevailed in a large arc within West Franconian from Holland to Lorraine and that it is now present at its strongest in Luxembourg — albeit with many deviations from Transylvanian — whilst in the Rhineland and the Eifel it is preserved only in fragmentary form.</p> |
