摘要
客家山歌是即興編唱的口傳文學，以七言四句為其基本形式。唱山歌係客家人在勞動中用以紓壓，表達男女情思、訴說風土民情、歌詠生活與自然等的妙劑，為客家人生活重要的一環，同時儲存客家人豐富的語言材料。語言風格，係在作品中，由語言因素影響而形成的審美風貌和格調，即作品通過具體的語言表現形式所呈現的特質。本文以苗栗地區田野調查的客家山歌詞為研究範圍，透過「句法」、「音韻」、「詞彙」三個向度梳理其語言現象。經由語言的多重角度考察苗栗客家山歌，不僅層層挖掘其語言風格特性，觀照客家山歌語言的紛繁面貌，進而透過這些生動鮮明、形象化的語言，顯映先民在心靈底層積澱的真實情感與精神內涵，揭示客家民族的語言文化傳統。
