Match Theory and the Asymmetry Problem
This article discusses what we call the Asymmetry Problem, a theoretical question of how asymmetric properties of prosodic phrasing should generally be accounted for within the framework of Match Theory. Unlike Alignment Theory, in which phrasing asymmetry can be derived by mapping constraints (e.g., Align-XP), Match Theory cannot derive any phrasing asymmetry from mapping (i.e., Match) constraints. Thus, Match Theory may seem to face empirical p…
Big accents in Stockholm Swedish
Stockholm Swedish has a distinction between so-called big accents and small accents (in addition to a lexical contrast between tone accent 1 and tone accent 2). The function and distribution of the big versus small accent has never been fully understood. West Germanic languages lack a corresponding distinction. While it is known that big accents appear on information-structural focus, this fact cannot account for all big accents, nor can it expla…
The prosodic hierarchy of Swedish
We give an overview of the phonological properties and processes that define the categories of the prosodic hierarchy in Swedish: the prosodic word (ω), the prosodic phrase (φ) and the intonation phrase (ι). The separation of two types of tonal prominence, big accents versus small accents (previously called focal and word accent , e.g. Bruce 1977, 2007), is crucial for our analysis. The ω in Swedish needs to be structured on two levels, which we …
Sisterhood in prosodic branching
This article discusses the syntax–prosody interface, drawing on evidence from Stockholm Swedish. It is shown that a Swedish main clause containing an embedded clause has three prosodic correlates, two of which are non-isomorphic to the syntactic bracketing. However, two coordinated clauses have only one – isomorphic – prosodic correlate. Optimality-theoretic constraints (Prince & Smolensky 1993) are used to derive this variation. A new markedness…
