Intonational cues to discourse structure in Japanese
This study examines the extent to which intonation plays a role in the structuring of information in a Japanese monologue. The role of pitch accent in the intonational system of Japanese is very di erent from that in languages like Dutch or English: in Japanese, pitch accent is a lexical property of words and cannot be used to lend prominence to words at the sentence level. Therefore, we wonder...
متن کاملSome Bibliographical References on Intonation and Intonational Meaning
Introductions to speech research and acoustic phonetics can be found in (Ladefoged, 1962; Denes and Pinson, 1973; Fry, 1979). For survey-level introductions to studies of English intonation, see (Halliday, 1967; Crystal, 1969; Crystal, 1975; Cruttenden, 1986; Couper-Kuhlen, 1986).

However, human speakers can, if necessary, adjust their speaking style, using careful articulation with foreigners, for example, but casual mumbles with close friends and family. And several recent studies have demonstrated that speakers who notice that a listener is having difficulty do indeed adjust their speech towards clearer articulation when repeating. Adjustments include speaking more sl...
متن کاملHow Listeners Weight Acoustic Cues to Intonational Phrase Boundaries
The presence of an intonational phrase boundary is often marked by three major acoustic cues: pause, final lengthening, and pitch reset. The present study investigates how these three acoustic cues are weighted in the perception of intonational phrase boundaries in two experiments. Sentences that contained two intonational phrases with a critical boundary between them were used as the experimen...
متن کاملIntonational cues to student questions in tutoring dialogs
Successful Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITSs) must be able to recognize when their students are asking a question. They must identify question form as well as function in order to respond appropriately. Our study examines whether intonational features, specifically, F0 height and rise range, are useful cues to student question type in a corpus of 643 American English questions. Results show a ...
