本文基于QGIS同言线地图，对中原官话汾河片六个常用日母字(“耳”“二”“儿”“日”“肉”“芮”)的声母发音进行了方言地理学分析。研究共搜集了52个方言点的材料，结合了笔者实地调查和前人研究成果。研究发现汾河片日母字的读音分合呈现三条主要线索，文章认为，这些读音差异的本质是方言底层(存古形式)与官话覆盖层(创新形式)相互竞争的结果，反映了历史音变在不同地区推进不平衡的状况。Based on QGIS isogloss maps, this paper presents a dialect geographical analysis of the initial consonant pronunciations of six commonly used Ri-initial characters in the Fenhe subgroup of Zhongyuan Mandarin, namely ěr (耳), èr (二), ér (儿), rì (日), ròu (肉) and ruì (芮). The data for this study were collected from 52 dialect localities, integrating the author’s own fieldwork with findings from previous research. The findings reveal that the splits and mergers of Ri‑initial pronunciations in the Fenhe subgroup follow three main trajectories. The paper argues that these pronunciation differences are, in essence, the result of competition between a conservative dialectal substrate and an innovative Mandarin superstrate, reflecting the uneven progression of historical sound changes across regions.
