Central northeastern dialect ((ポルトガル語:dialeto nordestino central), ) is a dialect spoken in the central part of the Northeast Region, Brazil, in all the states of Rio Grande do Norte, Paraíba, Alagoas and Sergipe, much of the state of Pernambuco (except for the Zona da Mata and the Recife metropolitan area), northern of Bahia, southern of Ceará, southeastern of Piauí and a few regions of Maranhão. It has roughly about 53078137 native speakers and varies within the region. This dialect shares similarities between north coast, Baiano and Recifense dialects. ==Main features== *Predominant use of voiced (d̪) and voiceless (t̪) dental stops before close front unrounded vowel (i) even in final syllables "de" and "te", like ''presente'' (:pɾɛ'zẽt̪i) ("present") and ''diário'' (:d̪i'aɾju) ("daily"). *Palatalization predominant (but not always recurring) of fricatives /s/ and /z/ in /ʃ/ and /ʒ/ before voiceless (t) and voiced (d) alveolar stops, like ''poste'' (:'pɔʃt̪i) ("post") and ''desde'' (:'deʒd̪i) ("from", "since"). *In "des", "dis", "tes" or "tis" syllables, there are voiced alveolar sibilant affricate (dz) and voiceless alveolar sibilant affricate (ts): ''idades'' (:i'dadz) ("ages", "years") and ''partes'' (:'pahts) ("parts"). *Voiced glottal fricative (ɦ) and voiceless glottal fricative (h) are present in the sound of the letter "r" (the first between syllables, but never with an "r" starting a non-initial syllable alone, because these do /ɾ/, and the second at the beginning of words or digraph "rr"). None of the two phonemes occur at the end of words. Examples: ''corda'' (:'kɔɦdɐ]) ("rope"), ''rabo'' (:'habu) ("tail" - also locally in Brazilian Northeast "ass") and ''barragem'' (:ba'haʒẽj) ("dam"), ''querer'' (:ke'ɾe) ("to want"). *Opening of the pre-tonic vowels /e/ and /o/ to /ɛ/ and /ɔ/ most of these syllables with vowels: ''rebolar'' (:hɛbɔ'la) ("throw away"). *Monophthongization of /e/ and /ɛ/or /o/ and /ɔ/ in some cases. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Central northeastern Portuguese」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
