Abstract

Abstract 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 according to the principles of the autosegmental-metrical model, show a complex interplay of different phenomena at the text-tune interface, like vowel lengthening, tonal spreading, tonal retraction and intonation-driven schwa epenthesis. We argue that the variation detected in the data can be accounted for by the interaction of nine constraints (i.e., Max-IO(µp), Dep-IO(µs), Anchor(T%,Rt,IP,Rt), Anchor(L*,Rt,ˈσ,Rt), *Anchor(T,C), *Anchor(T,-voice), Share(T*,NC), Dep-IO(Associate), Max-IO(Associate)), whose ranking is established by means of a Stochastic Optimality Theory analysis.

优化理论中的文本调节：对南巴伦西亚加泰罗尼亚语是非问题的描述

摘要:本文旨在阐明核轮廓实现背后的语调语法原理，并从最优性理论约束的角度对其进行描述。为了做到这一点，我们分析了南瓦伦西亚加泰罗尼亚语是-否问题的核结构的韵律，特别强调文本调谐现象发生的情况。根据自音段-韵律模型的原理对实验数据进行了分析，结果表明，在文本-曲调界面上，元音延长、音调扩展、音调收缩和语调驱动的弱读重读等不同现象之间存在复杂的相互作用。我们认为，在数据中检测到的变化可以通过9个约束(即Max-IO(µp)， deep - io(µs)， Anchor(T%，Rt,IP,Rt)， Anchor(L*，Rt， σ，Rt)， *Anchor(T,C)， *Anchor(T，-voice)， Share(T*，NC)， deep - io (Associate)， Max-IO(Associate))的相互作用来解释，它们的排名是通过随机最优性理论分析建立的。

期刊介绍： Folia Linguistica covers all non-historical areas in the traditional disciplines of general linguistics (phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics), and also sociological, discoursal, computational and psychological aspects of language and linguistic theory. Other areas of central concern are grammaticalization and language typology. The journal consists of scientific articles presenting results of original research, review articles, overviews of research in specific areas, book reviews, and a miscellanea section carrying reports and discussion notes. In addition, proposals from prospective guest editors for occasional special issues on selected current topics are welcomed.
