High-toned [il] in Seoul Korean Intonation
نویسندگان
چکیده
This study investigates recent changes in Korean intonation where an AP-initial syllable [il] is produced as a High tone by some speakers, introducing an exception to the intonational model of Korean. Data from 51 Seoul speakers and 26 Chonnam speakers show that this phenomenon, found most often when [il] means ‘one’, is employed mostly by Seoul speakers in their early 40s and younger. We propose two possible causes for this change and discuss various factors affecting this phenomenon.
