Abstract
Kajian ini dijalankan untuk mengkaji inventori fonem vokal yang wujud dalam dialek Melanau Rajang di kawasan Belawai di bawah pentadbiran Daerah Tanjung Manis, Sarawak. Kajian ini merupakan kajian lapangan dengan menggunakan kaedah temu bual untuk mendapatkan data. Sebanyak 250 senarai daftar kata Swadesh (Samarin, 1967) digunakan sebagai panduan pengumpulan data. Dalam kajian ini, dua orang informan berlainan jantina yang berumur dalam lingkungan 40 dan 60 tahun telah dipilih berdasarkan kriteria-kriteria pemilihan informan menurut Asmah Haji Omar (2001). Dalam menganalisis data, kaedah kualitatif telah digunakan berlandaskan kepada pendekatan struktural. Hasil kajian membuktikan bahawa terdapat sebanyak lapan (8) jenis fonem vokal yang wujud dalam dialek Melanau Rajang di kawasan Belawai iaitu empat (4) vokal depan [i, e, ε, a], satu (1) vokal tengah [ə] dan tiga (3) vokal belakang [u, o, ɔ]. Selain itu, distribusi/alternasi bagi kesemua fonem vokal dalam dialek Melanau Rajang di kawasan Belawai turut dibincangkan dalam kajian ini. Dapatan turut menunjukkan bahawa fonem vokal yang aktif ialah fonem vokal [a, i, u], manakala fonem vokal yang tidak aktif ialah vokal [ɔ, o, ε, ə, e].
