Wiru has a mixed prosodic system, with both word-initial stress as well as lexical and grammatical tone based off of two tonal primitives: H and L. Both tones are phonologically active, as evidenced by the presence of contour tones and the preservation of floating L tones in cases of H tone spread. The domain of the tone contrast is a left-aligned trochaic foot, which can be specified as /H/, /HL/, or /LH/. Grammatical tone is found at the phrase level, particularly within noun phrases. In particular, certain noun phrase modifiers, including demonstratives and relative clauses, trigger replacive grammatical tone melodies on the modified noun. Phonological processes affecting tone include dramatic phrase-final lowering as well as bidirectional H-tone spread.","PeriodicalId":145363,"journal":{"name":"1st International Conference on Tone and Intonation (TAI)","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115744711","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Minimal existing work provides impressionistic descriptions of the tone system and leads to diverging claims. Apart from lexical contrasts, tones are reported to be affected by sociolinguistic variables such as clan and gender, as well as by elicitation setting. The present study explores these factors using f0 contours found in monosyllabic words that were produced by speakers that differed in gender, clanlectal background and in different elicitation contexts. Cluster analyses were used to explore the f0 variation. Preliminary results suggest interactions between speaker and elicitation context and shed a new light on the realisation of tones in Kera’a.","PeriodicalId":145363,"journal":{"name":"1st International Conference on Tone and Intonation (TAI)","volume":"87 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114443316","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Four Cantonese SFPs with different intonations were examined: aa4 , le4 , lei4 , and zaa4 . Ten native adult speakers of Cantonese participated in production experiments. Smoothing Spline ANOVA results suggested that, despite the same citation tone (tone 4, low-falling tone), the F0 of aa4 , le4 , and zaa4 was significantly lower than that of lei4 when they functioned as expressing intonation at the utterance-final position. However, there were no significant differences between the F0 of all four SFPs and their (near-)homophones when they were produced as lexical items in the middle of a sentence. The F0 differences found between the SFPs at the utterance-final position can be attributed to the superimposition of low boundary tone on aa4 , le4 , and zaa4 . My results supported the hypothesis that the low-falling tone on aa4 , le4 , and zaa4 is a combination of lexical tone (tone 4) and intonation (low boundary tone), and that on lei4 is merely tonal.","PeriodicalId":145363,"journal":{"name":"1st International Conference on Tone and Intonation (TAI)","volume":"28 16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129421484","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These strategies are investigated here for a sample of YouTubers, in whose case it is necessary to draw an audience in quickly. Speaking expressively is thus important, and strong or emphatic prominences are one way to do that. We find that the YouTubers in the sample used significantly more non-early peaks than early peaks, and more emphatic prominences than weak prominences. The timing of the accents does not seem to be tied to the prominence level, but emphatic accents were produced with higher pitch peaks than the other prominence levels. Results differed depending on speaker origin.","PeriodicalId":145363,"journal":{"name":"1st International Conference on Tone and Intonation (TAI)","volume":"83 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131636375","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We carried out a lexical decision task with masked priming with 23 Native speakers of Vietnamese. We compared the reaction times of (i) identical primes and targets, which share consonants, vowels and tones, (ii) primes/targets with different tones, which share only the consonants and vowels, and (iii) completely unrelated primes/targets, where no elements are shared. Prime-target pairs with shared consonants and vowels but different tones had significantly faster RTs than unrelated prime-target pairs (645 vs. 674 ms, p<0.05). This means that consonants and vowels produce a facilitation effect. We also found that prime-target pairs with shared consonants and vowels but different tone have significantly slower RTs than identical prime/targets (645 vs. 622 ms, p<0.05). This is evidence that tones provide facilitation separate from that of segments. Several hypotheses can explain this pattern: This could be an effect of visual similarity of tonal diacritics in the prime/targets, or it could be related to the Vietnamese writing system. The explicit and stable tonal marking in Vietnamese writing, which is unavailable in Mandarin, Cantonese, Thai – languages for which tonal priming is elusive – might result in greater tonal metacognition and stronger priming effects.","PeriodicalId":145363,"journal":{"name":"1st International Conference on Tone and Intonation (TAI)","volume":"83 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125427349","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While Hungarian has fixed syntactic positions for (narrow, exclusive) focus and topic, the structural marking of information structure cannot disambiguate multiple possible interpretations when the focus position is filled with complex phrases. We conducted a production study with complex noun phrases in the syntactic focus position, where contexts elicited either focus on the whole phrase or only on parts of it (e.g. only the noun). Our results show that while there is predominantly consistent prosodic marking of the left-edge of the syntactic focus position, there are different prosodic patterns in the NP depending on the position and the domain of focus. Thus, despite the structurally prominent syntactic focus position in Hungarian, prosodic prominence marking plays an independent role in focus marking.","PeriodicalId":145363,"journal":{"name":"1st International Conference on Tone and Intonation (TAI)","volume":"148 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123464243","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A language has strong MacR if its intonation regularly alternates between high and low tones over a word-sized prosodic unit in a phrase [1:522]. The model predicts that languages with an Accentual Phrase (AP) marked by a rising or falling tone will have stronger MacR than languages with various types of pitch accents. Jun observed that languages with weak MacR tend to have strong acoustic correlates of stress while languages with strong MacR tend to have weak acoustic correlates of stress. Therefore, she predicted an inverse correlation between the strength of lexical stress and the strength of MacR. The current study tests this prediction by comparing the lexical stress and MacR correlates of English, Uyghur, and Bengali. The results of a production experiment found that English had the strongest stress correlates, followed by Uyghur, followed by Bengali, and the results of a MacR perception experiment found some support for the opposite ranking (i.e., Bengali > Uyghur > English). These preliminary results suggest a potential trade-off between prominence cues and support for the predicted inverse relationship.","PeriodicalId":145363,"journal":{"name":"1st International Conference on Tone and Intonation (TAI)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128160154","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cole & Shattuck-Hufnagel, 2016) in the study of a little-described language. We bring forth results from two perception experiments on the prosody of Albanian, which provide important evidence in the perceptibility of prosodic and non-prosodic correlates in the language’s prosodic system, shedding more light on its complexity. Albanian listeners in this study show moderate to substantial agreement in the perception of both prosodic prominences and boundaries, conforming to what has been found in RPT studies from other languages so far (Cole at al, 2010; Baumann & Winter, 2015; Riesberg at al, 2020). In doing so, listeners’ perception of prosodic structure correlates with both prosodic cues, i.e. PoLaR intonational categories (Ahn et al, 2019), and non-prosodic cues, i.e. syntactic break and part of speech, suggesting that these factors may serve as cues to prominence and boundary perception.","PeriodicalId":145363,"journal":{"name":"1st International Conference on Tone and Intonation (TAI)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124323368","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
