The Phonetic Investigation of North-Altai Turkic Languages by the Advanced Research Techniques

Authors : Iraida Selyutina

Abstract: The instrumental research of the sound systems of the peoples of Siberia and the neighboring regions has been carried out in the Novosibirsk Institute of Philology of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (SB RAS) since, 1968. At the present stage of development of high-precision X-ray and electronic technologies, it is considered necessary to transfer experimental-phonetic researches on qualitatively new methodological and technological layers. The complex multidisciplinary investigation of phonetic systems in Siberian minority languages is carried out by the linguists and medical men of the three institutes of SB RAS. The objective experimental-phonetic data on the endangered languages have been obtained by the techniques of the Magnetic-Resonance Tomography, Digital Roentgenography and Direct Laryngoscopy. The aim of our research is to promote the human rights for minority ethnic groups to preserve their native languages and cultures; the research is also in agreement with the efforts of the world scientific society aimed at preserving the autochthonous (indigenous) languages as a constituent part of the biological, cultural and linguistic unity. Our mission is to persistently develop the values by institutional and academic growth through qualitative research contributions.
