韻尾(syllable coda)是跟在做韻腹的元音後面的輔音或者元音,和前面的元音以及元音前面的輔音組成一個音節,和做韻頭與韻腹的元音一起組成韻母。[1]
普通話中的韻母「ㄦ」可以做韻尾,在拼音中寫作r,如「花兒」拼作huar。[2]
漢語方言裏常見的韻尾有:-u -i -m、-n、-ŋ、-p、-t、-k、-ʔ等。
陰聲韻 | 零韻尾 元音韻尾 |
-∅, /-i/ /-u/ |
---|---|---|
陽聲韻 | 鼻音韻尾 | /-m/ /-n/ /-ŋ/ |
入聲韻 | 塞音韻尾 | /-p̚/ /-t̚/ /-k̚/ /-ʔ/ |
英語的音節結構比較複雜,韻尾數目難以計數,以下是幾個例子:
an: 韻尾 /n/
cup: 韻尾 /p/
tall: 韻尾 /l/
milk: 韻尾 /lk/
tints: 韻尾 /nts/
fifths: 韻尾 /fθs/
sixths: 韻尾 /ksθs/
