Final lengthening in Russian: a corpus-based study
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper presents the results of a corpus-based study of final lengthening in Russian. The Corpus of Russian Professionally Read Speech (CORPRES) was used to investigate the degree of word and vowel lengthening as a function of prosodic factors, including prosodic boundary type and phrase or utterance pitch pattern. The results show that the degree of both word and vowel lengthening depends on the boundary depth and the location of the word within the intonation contour, as well as on the presence of a pause. Our data are only partly in line with the data previously obtained in a controlled experiment.

This paper reports the principles behind designing a tagset to cover Russian morphosyntactic phenomena, modifications of the core tagset, and its evaluation. The tagset and associated morphosyntactic specifications are based on the MULTEXT-East framework, while the decisions in designing it were aimed at achieving a balance between parameters important for linguists and the possibility to detec...
متن کاملF0 declination in Russian revisited
This paper deals with F0 declination in Russian. The study was conducted using statistical data derived from the Corpus of Professionally Read Speech. The results confirm the relationship between F0 slope and the utterance length for Russian. At the same time they reveal a) individual strategies in preplanning declination slope of the phrase or utterance; b) strong dependency of the F0 slope on...
