摘　　要：本文利用北京语言大学"汉语方言地图集数据库"和"BCC汉语语料库"以及其他公开发表的材料,对"麻将"的词源和传播方式进行探讨。首先指出"麻将"是"麻雀"的儿化音,来源于"雀"读如精母、且发生了鼻尾型儿化音变的区域;其次通过方言地图和语音比较说明牌名"麻将"的来源地及其向其他方言传播的方式;最后对汉语史上源自鸟名的牌名词形的更迭消长进行梳理和分析。Based on the Database for the Linguistic Atlas of Chinese Dialects of BLCU and Corpus for Chinese Language as well as other open source materials, this paper discusses the etymology and propagation mode of majiang （麻将）. Firstly, it points out that rnajiang comes from the area where que （雀） pronounced as jiang（将） and has undergone nasal final typed retroflex suffixation. It is a retroflexed Er-suffixed words of rnaquer. Secondly, it provides a suggestion about the original region where rnajiang was used as a card name, as well as its propagation mode towards other dialects. Finally, it explores and analyzes the change and variation on the form of card name which originates from a bird name in the history of Chinese dialects.
