Deaccentuation of Words Representing ‘Given’ Information: Effects of Persistence of Grammatical Function and Surface Position
The absence of intonational prominence on a referring expression ( deaccentuation) is commonly explained as a consequence of the GIVENness of the discourse entity referred to - the fact that it represents old information in the discourse. However, speakers sometimes use accented expressions to refer to such GIVEN entities, so that GIVENness is not a sufficient explanation for deaccentuation. It has also been suggested that speakers tend to expres…
Question marking in Hungarian: Timing and Height of Pitch Peaks
Baselines Revisited: Reply to Ladd
Ladd's reanalysis of Terken's (1991) results is critically examined, and some problems raised by Ladd's reinterpretation are discussed. Ladd's suggestion that listeners' normaliztion of F o range involves abstract components (i.e., sources of information which are not directly observable in the acoustic signal) is accepted, and a quantitative model is proposed to account for judgments of perceived relative prominence
Effects of segmental quality and intonation on quality judgments for texts and utterances
The Distribution of Pitch Accents in Instructions as a Function of Discourse Structure
Speakers gave instructions to listeners to assemble the front view of a house from a set of ready-made parts. The main aim was to find out how the distribution of accents over expressions referring to the parts of the front view was related to the structure of the monologues containing the instructions. Each monologue was analysed as a series of instructions, each instruction specifying to the listener what to do with one part of the front view (…
