Why is it "catchy" in Quyi? For example, Bai and Bai should be pronounced "Bo" and thieves should be pronounced "Ze". What is the function of this pronunciation? What are the rules?

In short, those words in Beijing Opera that are different from Mandarin in phonology (except tone) are catchy words. In other words, catchy words are the archaic and dialect words that are still preserved in the singing of Beijing Opera. The ancient sound comes from Zhongyuan rhyme (or Zhongzhou rhyme). Dialects come from Hubei, Anhui, Henan, Jiangsu and other places. Readability means easy reading.

In Mandarin, there are many sounds and vowels that can't be put together. If there are words that can't be put together in Beijing Opera, they are catchy words. For example, the initials B, P, M, F and the vowel ong can't be spelled together, but in Beijing Opera, "Bounce" is pronounced bong, "Peng" is pronounced pong, "Dream" is pronounced mong, and "Feng" is pronounced fong. For another example, in the Putonghua language family, according to the rules, initials Z, C and S are not spelled with vowels of even-toothed sounds and paired sounds. If there are spellings, such as zian (arrow), cie (and), siang (fragrance), zü (poly), cü (marriage), süan (announcement) and so on. , they also belong to it. Of course, catchy words also belong to Mandarin syllables.

From the perspective of pronunciation and rhyming spelling, catchy words can also be divided into two categories:

The first category, non-Mandarin syllables.

Although the vowel (1) belongs to the Putonghua series, there are no such syllables in Putonghua, such as be (white), pe (beat), me (ink), kuo (home), mong (dream), zian (arrow), ciao (sadness) and siang (phase).

(2) Although all vowels belong to Putonghua series, they are all dialect initials, such as ηai (love), Yan (light),

νi (tail) and so on. ;

(3) Although the initials belong to Mandarin series, the vowels are all dialect initials, such as Ai Ji (street), Ai Xi (shoe),

Jio (sense), qio (ignorance), xio (learning), etc.

(4) Vowels and vowels are dialect vowels, such as úio (abuse). This kind of words is only a few words.

The second category, Mandarin syllables.

It belongs to Mandarin syllables, but it has a special pronunciation in Beijing Opera. For example, "Deng" reads Deng instead of Deng, "Bing" reads Bing instead of Bing, "Sheng" reads Shen instead of Sheng, and so on.

Catchy characters are mainly used in the lyrics of traditional Peking Opera.

1 for matching rhymes.

In "Goddess Scattering Flowers", the goddess sang Xipi running water.

Guanyin's full moon is full of pearls and wonderful faces (incense).

There are good talents and dragon girls standing in Siang;

The bodhi tree is full of flowers (Yang),

Green parrots and fairy birds are flying up and down in Lingyan Temple.

2. catchy words are used in sentences, and some words can be catchy or not. For example, the word "Shout" in Xie Yaohuan's "High Beat" and "Suddenly Heard a Shout in Class" is not catchy for Du Jinfang, who sings Han, while Li Weikang sings Shangqiang.

3, catchy words and adjacent words feel awkward, can not catchy. For example, Rili in Xi, Huansha goes to Qingxi River every day in Luo Shen, Today, all the sisters are playing with Chuanbin, Hongyang Cave and I beheaded at Yuanmen yesterday are interlinked. So the word "day" can be catchy here.

4, catchy but not catchy. The so-called derailment means running, not rhyming. For example, in "Hanging Scarlet Beetle", Kang read, "One day, if you want to, don't keep holding it." "Day", "time" and "day" don't rhyme (it should be said that they don't rhyme very much), but they do, so it's better not to rhyme.

5. Some old catchy words are not catchy. For example, "face" reads the sword, "roar" reads the sage, "war" reads the parallel or, "dragon" reads the dragon and so on. It is better not to be catchy than to make listeners and audiences puzzled.

6. Don't use homophone analogy to identify catchy words. Some words are homophones in Mandarin, but they are different in Beijing opera singing. For example, straightness and straightness, Chu and touch, and Shu and Shu are homophones, but in Beijing opera, straightness, Chu and Shu are catchy words, while straightness, touch and Shu are not catchy words. For example, the word "knowledge" in Life is unknown (Feng Haichao) is catchy, but the word "knowledge" in Farewell My Concubine is not catchy.
