Abstract

The article explores the prosodic and kinesic aspects of three different ish constructions using corpus data from the multimodal NewsScape Library of International Television News. The results reveal that bound -ish with ‘approximate’ meaning is longer in duration, higher in pitch, and shows more pitch variability than bound -ish with ‘properties’ meaning. Free Ish is also longer in duration and shows more pitch variability but is also prosodically set apart from its linguistic environment. Furthermore, the different ish constructions prove to be associated with different sets of kinesic features, although none of these reaches a significant level in the statistical model. It will be argued that the prosodic aspects mirror the constructional status of ish, whereas the kinesic aspects may be used to support their different functions.

多情态ish: ish的有限和自由用法的韵律和动力方面

本文利用来自国际电视新闻多模式NewsScape图书馆的语料库数据，探讨了三种不同ish结构的韵律和动位方面。结果表明，具有“近似”意义的bound-ish比具有“性质”意义的bind-ish持续时间更长，音高更高，并且表现出更多的音高变异性。Free Ish的持续时间也更长，音高变化更大，但也与语言环境有韵律上的区别。此外，不同的ish结构被证明与不同的运动机能特征有关，尽管这些特征在统计模型中都没有达到显著水平。有人认为，韵律方面反映了ish的结构状态，而运动机能方面可以用来支持它们的不同功能。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
