Артикуляционные параметры дорсального смычного /k/ в тюркских языках Южной Сибири… по данным ультразвукового исследования (на материале телеутского языка и диалектов татар Сибири)
Articulatory parameters of dorsal stop /k/ in the Turkic languages of Southern Siberia according to ultrasound data (based on Teleut and Siberian Tatar dialectal material)

Summary/Abstract: The objective of the article is to identify and characterize the main types of articulatory patterns of the phoneme /k/ in the related y-group Turkic idioms of Southern Siberia - the Teleut language of the village of Bekovo, Kemerovo region and the Eushta sub-dialect of Tomsk dialect cluster belonging to Siberian Tatar language from the villages of Eushta and Chernaya Rechka, Tomsk region — using the Articulate Assistance Micro ultrasound machine. In Teleut, the phoneme /k/ is represented by velar [k] and uvular [q] allophones, contrasted by the position of boththe tongue body (TB) and tongue root (TR). Since these allophones are positionally distributed according to a number of preceding and following vowels, we can consider them allophones of the same phoneme /k/, nevertheless having significantly different articulation. The uvular allophone is characterized by the retracted TR, while the velar is featured with the advanced TB. The material recorded in the village of Eushta is close to Teleut and attests the contrast between [k] and [q]. The contrast of velar and uvular consonants in the idiolect of the village of Chernaya Rechka is much less overt and affects only the TB, but not the TR this probably being due to the convergence of the Eushta dialect in Chernaya Rechka with the western dialect of the Tatar language lacking the contrast of velar and uvular /k/-allophones. The lack of [k] / [q] articulatory contrast in the idiolect of the village of Nizhegorodka in Kemerovo region may indirectly propose the Mishar substrate in the local idiom. The position of TR during articulation of the velar or uvular allophone does not change, and TB position changes slightly - the velar allophone is characterized by a greater degree of TB advancement, however, the general tongue contour is identical for both allophones.
