唐米语,也称为Thāmī、Thangmi Kham、Thangmi Wakhe、Thani,是一种汉藏语言,由尼泊尔中东部的唐米人使用。唐米人将他们的语言称为 Thangmi Kham 或 Thangmi Wakhe,而尼泊尔其他地区则将其称为 Thāmī。然而,这些使用者中的大多数居住在尼泊尔的传统故乡多拉卡区(Dolakha)以及大吉岭[3]唐米语使用天城文字母书写。[4]马克·图林(Mark Turin)对唐米语进行了广泛记录。

分布

编辑

唐米语主要在巴格马蒂省的多拉卡地区、赛隆科拉(拉梅恰普县北部狭长地带,主要在格库尔甘加)的村庄、辛杜帕尔乔克县东部地区使用,部分移居到加德满都谷地城市的老年人也讲这种语言。

在多拉卡 (Dolakha) 和辛杜帕尔科克 (Sindhupalcok) 地区以外,很少有塔米族人讲唐米语。

天城文是唐米语使用的文字

唐米语似乎与尼泊尔的其他语言有很多相似之处。例如,巴拉姆语(Barām),基兰特语(Kiranti),尼瓦尔语(Newar) 语。Konow (1909)、Shafer (1966)、Stein (1970)、Toba (1990)、van Driem (1992) 和 Turin 的研究表明,唐米语与拉伊语(Rai)和尼瓦尔语(Newar)密切相关。

尼泊尔多拉克

唐米语由两种方言组成,即多拉克区(Dolakhā 东部)和辛杜帕尔乔克县(Sindhupālchok 西部)。它们在音系、名词和动词形态以及词汇方面有所不同。大多数唐米语人口使用 Dolakhā 方言,而只有少数人使用 Sindhupālcok。Dolakhā 方言提供了更完整的动词一致系统,而 Sindhupālcok 方言的名词形态则更复杂。

唐米歌曲

编辑

唐米人拥有丰富的文化和传统。语言是他们身份的重要组成部分,他们通过文化(主要是音乐)来表达自己的语言。尼泊尔唐米人协会 (NTS) 创作了几首唐米歌曲,这些歌曲于 2007 年录制。歌词由 Singh Bahadur Thami、Devendra Thami 和 Lok Bahadur Thami 创作。以下是一些示例:
