ABSTRACT
This paper uses the method of experimental phonetics acoustic analysis nasals in Xiahe dialect, we found that the nasals in Xiahe dialect has been divided into three parts: single nasals, nasals after clear fricative /h/ and nasals after voiced fricative /ɦ/. By comparing the time length, energy and formant, it is found that there is a great difference between the time length and energy of /h/ and /ɦ/. In addition, fricatives has little effect on the energy of nasal, while has a great effect on the time length.
