单词 phoneme
释义

phonemen.

Brit. /ˈfəʊniːm/, U.S. /ˈfoʊˌnim/
Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French phonème.
Etymology: < French phonème (1873) < ancient Greek ϕώνημα a sound < ϕωνεῖν to produce a sound, to speak (see phonetic adj. and n.) + -μα (see -oma comb. form); compare -eme suffix. Compare earlier phone n.1 In sense 2 after German Phonem (C. Wernicke Grundriss der Psychiatrie (1896) II. 126).The first use of the term phonème is normally attributed to the French linguist Dufriche-Desgenettes (1873); it was subsequently used by F. de Saussure ( Mémoire (1878/1879)), and hence (as German Phonem ) by M. Kruszewski ( Über die Lautabwechslung (1881) 14–15; compare quot. 1896 at sense 1a). N.E.D. (1906) indicates the stress as phoˈneme.
1. Linguistics.
a. A unit of sound in a language that cannot be analysed into smaller linear units and that can distinguish one word from another (e.g. /p/ and /b/ in English pat, bat). See allophone n.1Although its exact nature is disputed, and the existence of an abstract phonemic level (and hence the abstract phoneme as a constituent of morphemes) is controversial in phonological theory, the phoneme remains a standard taxonomic unit in the description of speech. The phoneme of structural linguistics is sometimes called the autonomous phoneme or taxonomic phoneme by generative phonologists, and distinguished from the systematic phoneme.

1879 Academy 27 Sept. 234 The author [sc. Ferdinand de Saussure] concludes that the duality of a and o in the classical languages is original, and that two vowels or phonemes, as he calls them, must have been confounded in the single a of the Northern group.

I take it that the various sounds which are accepted as identical by any speaking community are one phoneme, though they may differ considerably in actual sound.
