摘　　要：林语堂凭借扎实的外文基础和中西结合看问题的角度,敏锐察觉出国内上古声母研究的不足之处,在《古有复辅音说》一文中认为仅依靠谐声字材料难以详论古有复辅音,因此他运用“古今俗语”“读音及异文”“方言”等材料进一步证明,并提出研究复辅音的四条途径;在《古音中已遗失的声母》一文中批评清儒学者古声母研究的疏漏之处,提出上古喻四声母为禅母二等字的说法,并为喻四构拟音值。同时他还将历史语言学研究方法带入中国,在当时的学术环境中具有突出贡献。With a solid foundation in foreign languages and understanding of both western and Chinese perspec‐tives,Lin Yutang was keenly aware of the shortcomings of the study of archaic consonants in China.In his article The Theory of Archaic Consonant Cluster,he argued that it was difficult to discuss archaic consonant clusters at length relying only on homophonic characters.Therefore,using archaic and modern idioms,pronunciation and different characters with same or similar meanings,and dialects,he proposed and validated four approaches to study consonant clusters.In The Lost Consonants of Old Chinese Phonology,he criticized the Qing Dynasty scholars’lack of study of archaic consonants,and put forward the argument that the DivisionⅣarchaic Yu initials are the DivisionⅡcharacter of Shan initials,and es‐timated the phonetic values of the DivisionⅣarchaic Yu initials.He also introduced historical linguistic research meth‐ods to China,making great contributions to the academic environment at the time.
