A Speaking Atlas of the Languages of the Iberian Peninsula
The objective of this article is twofold: on one hand, it aims to present a speaking atlas of the languages of the Iberian Peninsula; on the other hand, it seeks to analyse the rhythm of the recorded speech samples, with special attention to the Romance varieties whose rhythm had not been described until now, and to the varieties on the border between languages traditionally considered syllable-timed and stress-timed.The results of the rhythmic m…
Friulian Dialect Classification
Aquest article ofereix una visió general de la classificació dels dialectes friülans. Francescato (1966) i Frau (1984) van proposar dues classificacions extremadament semblants: ambdós afirmaven que el friülà es divideix en tres àrees dialectals principals (friülà septentrional o càrnic, friülà centre-oriental, i friülà occidental o concordiès). Cada àrea dialectal es divideix en subàrees. Aquesta classificació es va fer en el marc de la dialecto…
Dynamic multi-cue weighting in the perception of Spanish intonation
Tune-text accommodation in Optimality Theory
This paper aims at contributing to ascertain the principles of intonational grammar that lie behind the realization of nuclear contours and at presenting them in terms of Optimality Theory constraints. In order to do so, we analyse the prosody of the nuclear configuration of Southern Valencian Catalan yes-no questions, with special emphasis on situations where text-tune accommodation phenomena take place. The empirical data, which are analysed ac…

La modalidad interrogativa en español y en chino
Este artículo presenta un análisis contrastivo de la modalidad interrogativa en español y en chino a partir de un marco teórico funcional-pragmático. A través del estudio, se muestra en primer lugar que la modalidad interrogativa no desempeña solo la función prototípica de solicitar información, sino que sirve para finalidades comunicativas diversas, tales como confirmar hipótesis, formular ruegos u órdenes, ofrecer objetos o sugerencias, expresa…
The encoding of epistemic operations in two Romance languages
Grundzüge der sizilianischen Prosodie
This article is concerned with basic intonational features of Sicilian, a Romance variety spoken in Sicily in Southern Italy. While there has been some research on the intonational features of the regional variety of Italian, Sicilian intonation remains undescribed. The first part of the article provides a historic overview of the dialectal configuration of Sicilian and the Sicilian-Italian diglossia. In the subsequent section we perform an inton…
Intonational variation in Minorcan Catalan
Stress clash in Spanish, Catalan, and Friulian from a prosodic perspective
In several languages, two stresses cannot appear adjacently in the speech chain, and a variety of solutions have been found to be used to resolve this disfavored juxtaposition. According to various different authors, a common strategy for solving stress clash is the non-realization of the first stress and, typically, a transfer of all stress parameters to the pre-tonic syllable. This study aims to describe how stress clash is solved in three Roma…
From a perceptual point of view, is there prosodic continuity between languages in contact
This paper contains the results of a set of perception tests that aimed at measuring perceived prosodic distances between different Romance languages (Italian, Friulian, Sardinian, Catalan, and Spanish). Data were collected within the framework of the AMPER project. The results were obtained by means of discrimination and identification tasks where the judges were 31 native speakers of Catalan form Barcelona and the stimuli were broad focus state…
Epistemic and evidential marking in discourse
The use of evidential and epistemic marking as a rhetorical strategy has received little attention in the literature. Speakers often make judgments on the basis of perceptual, reported, or inferred evidence, thus the relationship between epistemicity and evidentiality is often close and difficult to demarcate. However, whereas epistemicity involves the speaker's or writer's evaluation, judgment and degree of commitment attached to the truth-value…
Prosody as a cue for syntactic dependency. Evidence from dependent and independent clauses with subordination marks in Spanish
Communicating Epistemic Stance
This study investigates how epistemic stance is encoded and perceived in face-to-face communication when language is regarded as comprised by speech and gesture. Two studies were conducted with this goal in mind. The first study consisted of a production task in which participants performed opinion reports. Results showed that speakers communicate epistemic stance both verbally and non-verbally, and that specific prosodic and gestural patterns ar…
Contacto lingüístico y transferencia prosódica bajo una perspectiva diacrónica
The article focuses on some intonational features of three Romance languages spoken in northern Sardinia (Algherese Catalan, Logudorese Sardinian, and the Sardinian regional variety of Italian). The first part of the article shows, by means of both qualitative and quantitative analyses, that the above-mentioned languages share some intonational features that are not present in the dialects of Catalan and Italian spoken in the Iberian Peninsula an…
