  Kata-kata Sanskrit dalam bahasa Melayu dan bahasa Thai : satu kajian perbandingan dari segi fonologi

  Abstrak
  Tesis ini merupakan cubaan awal yang diadakan untuk mengisi kekosongan kajian linguistik perbandingan di antara bahasa Melayu dan Bahasa Thai yang mengkhusus kepada perbandingan fonologi bagi kata-kata pinjaman daripada bahasa yang terserap ke dalam bahasa Melayu dan bahasa Thai dengan menggunakan pendekatan yang berdasarkan teori standard fonologi yang diperkenalkan oleh Noam Chomsky dan Halle (1968) andrson (1974).
  Kajian ini dilakukan dengan tujuan untuk mengenal pasti kaedah penyerapan bunyi bahasa Sanskrit ke dalam bahasa Melayu dan bahasa Thai dan mengemukakan perbezaan proses fonologi bagi kata-kata Sanskrit dalam bahasa Melayu dan bahasa Thai dengan cara mengkaji dan menganalisis kata-kata pinjaman Sanskrit yang terdapat di dalam bahasa Melayu dan bahasa Thai. Analisis ini melihat persamaan dan perbezaan antara segmen-segmen tertentu bagi bunyi dalam sesuatu perkataan daripada bahasa sumber yang mengalami perubahan dalam bahsa sasaran mengikut sistem fonologi masing-masing.
  Pengesahan data yang dijadikan bahan-bahan perbandingan dalam tesis ini dilakukan dengan merujuk khas kepada kamus dwibahasa (Sanskrit-Inggeris) yang diterbitkan yang diterbitkan oleh Oxford University Press berjudul ‘A Practical Sanskrit Dictionary – with transliteration, accentuation, and etymological analysis throughout’’ (Macdonell,A.A., 1976).

  "Bidang fonetik dan fonologi telah mengalami perkembangan yang amat panjang sebagai bidang khusus kajian bunyi bahasa umat manusia. Perkembangan kajian bidang ini dilahirkan sejajar dengan perkembangan disiplin-disiplin lain dalam linguistik."

  The marine compass was an important tool for navigation because it showed direction at sea. However, a compass 'course' is different from a 'bearing". Early compasses ranged from simple magnetized needles floating in water to more advanced instruments. The Chinese were the first to invent the magnetic compass, and during the Ming dynasty they developed it further by mounting it on a detailed diving board.

  The passage describes how early sailors used the Pole Star, Polaris or navigation before the 1470s. Because Polaris appeared nearly fixed in the sky, its altitude helped sailors estimates latitude, although it was not perfectly alighed with the North Pole. The text also explains that Polaris was less useful in Southeast Asia and the Indian Ocean., where sailors relied more on coastal navigation. Araba and Chinese navigators used simple tools such as the kamal and star plates to measure star height above the horizon fo guidance at sea.

  There is no other instruments but Mao K'un maps for open ocean navigations. Star altitude were added for the first time when crossing the mouth of the bay of Bengal .

  The Mao K'un with the Zheng he Voyages used a star charts instead of the ocean navigations. But there are mislabeled star chart title of navigational diagrams by Needham. Also there are some problems in identifying stars with sailors' and names'. Zheng aids to navigation but only approximate geographical coastal positions can be found.

  Sailing directions were recorded in East and West for both coasting and open sea voyages. For example, 5the knowledge of the various trade routes with directions and favorable winds, and description of the coastlines. Office are termed as Pilots after fitting their modern equivalents that include geographical descriptions and commercial information.

  Voyage routes ran in lines followed parallel to an irregular coastline and they provided the navigation with a direct picture of the coast but it was not possible to fix these. They are more like the straight line guides of the LondonUndergraund with pretty pictures.

  The marine charts from the early times were showing a recognizable Mediterranean and northwestern shoulder of Africa without latitude and longitude. Arabs used a chart that were inspired by Portuguese. The Mao K'un maps named a later compiler found in the Wu-pei chin were written with text, and are of no standard siza or orientation.

  Even experienced navigators, including Arab seafarers known for their advanced techniques, did not use latitude in the modern sense. This reliance on celestial height measurements persisted for centuries, with some English sailors continuing the practice into the Victorian era.
• Journal of the Malayan branch of the Royal Asiatic Society

  Navigation reminded far from precise. Mariners could not accurately determine their exact geographic position. The concept of locating a ship at the intersection of latitude and longitude was largely theoretical and confined to scholars. Longitude was especially difficult to measure and could only be estimated, while latitude was not fully conceptualized as it is today. Instead, sailors relied on measuring the altitude of stars, rather than understanding latitude as a coordinate systems.

  Portuguese adapted and simplified earlier Arabic instruments such as quadrants and astrolabes. These tools were modified to measure the altura in degrees, making them more practical for sailors. Additionally, nautical almanacs that is derived from Arabic knowledge were introduced, incorporating solar data alongside stellar observations.

  The development of modern navigation techniques began in Europe during the late 15th century, not the early 1420s as often misunderstood. Contrary to popular belief, Prince Henry the Navigater did not initiate advanced oceanic navigations for voyages to Asia. Rather, it was under king John ll of Portugal in the 1470s that significant progress occured. His directive aimed to improve navigation after Portuguese sailors crossed the equator in search of the legendary figure Prester John.

  The text correct the misconception that the southwest monsoon moves in a straightward diagonal path from Africa to Southeast Asia. In reality, it develops progressively, beginning near Aceh, then reaching Sri Lanka, and finally the west coast of India.

  The passage explain that sailing routes were heavily influenced not just by wind direction but by seasonal weather conditions. Stormy monsoon periods often made certain coastal harbors in accessible, such as the east coast of the Malay peninsula during the musim tutup kuala and the west coast of India during the southwest monsoon. These environmental constrains shaped navigation strategies more than simplistic wind model suggests.
• Journal of the Malayan Branch of the Royal Asiatic Society

  Evidence from the 1431 Chinese expedition demonstrates that sailors adapted flexibly to changing wind systems. Rather than strictly following a fixed directional cycle, fleets could travel both eastward and westward within the same monsoon season. For example, Chinese ship sailed from China to Java on the winter monsoon, then continued to Malacca during the southwest monsoon, and later crossed the Indian Ocean to Hormuz during the northeast monsoon. , returning again within that same seasonal patters.

  common misunderstandings about monsoon wind patterns and their role in historical maritime trade across the Indian ocean and Southeast Asia. While it is often believed that ships followed a simple one-way seasonal pattern and returing west with the southwest monsoon. However the reality was more complex.
