摘　　要：藏文中的高元音i、u在藏语北部方言大多变为后高元音■,这使北部藏语的元音格局与藏文和其他藏语方言大不相同。北部藏语与上古汉语在元音系统、元音与韵尾的配合格局等方面十分接近,基于前人对上古汉语内部音变过程的研究,文章作出推测:上古汉语早期阶段的**i、**u元音在多数韵尾前面变成*,这是上古汉语内部的重要音变之一,北部藏语与上古汉语的接近正是由于它们经历了相近的音变过程。把藏语和上古汉语中与■元音相关的音变过程联系起来观察,可以为上古汉语元音的研究、原始汉藏语元音的拟测等提供参考。The high vowel i and u in written Tibetan mostly changed into the back and high viowel m in north Tibetan Language. It made the the viowel system of north Tibetan Language differs from written Tibetan and other dialects. North Tibetan Language is very similar to Ancient Chinese in vowel system. Based on other research on Ancient Chinese, I presumed that the vowel ＊＊i and ＊＊u in early Ancient Chinese changed into the vowel ＊w afterward, and the similarity between North Tibetan and Ancient Chinese originated from the similar change process. The change process in Tibetan Language and Ancient Chinese could supply references to the study on the vowel in Proto-Sino-Tibetan.
