While Mizo shows up to be a very typical Tibeto-Burman tone language (Sreenivasan 2015) [2], Tenyidie lies somewhere in between Mizo and Kuki-Thadou in its similarities to African tonal characteristics. The properties of ‘contour tone system’ in Pike (1948) [3] fit more for the Mizo contours and those for ‘register tone system’ fit more for Thadou and Tenyidie. However, while the post-lexical phenomena of ‘downstep’ and ‘downdrift’ are present in Thadou, they are absent in both Mizo and Tenyidie.","PeriodicalId":233495,"journal":{"name":"6th International Symposium on Tonal Aspects of Languages (TAL 2018)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122813428","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}

Acoustic analysis of the stimuli spoken by a native speaker reveals that in perceptual tests, temporal and intensity cues had an effect in determining focus prominence produced by non-native learners, whereas the influence of these phonetic cues was not detected in the perception of native speakers. In contrast, pitch variation is the cue that facilitates native listeners’ perception of focus prosody in Mandarin. Moreover, pitch direction such as the interplay of tone and intonation, and emphasis locations in Mandarin are also factors affecting the focus perception of native English speakers.","PeriodicalId":233495,"journal":{"name":"6th International Symposium on Tonal Aspects of Languages (TAL 2018)","volume":"205 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132346691","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}

Tone remains a challenge in many language documentation projects, and far too often still, one comes across descriptive and theoretical treatments of tone languages in which tone marking is entirely absent or of questionable accuracy. ATLAS takes as its input a WAV file and TextGrid delimiting tonebearing segments and outputs normalized pitch level annotations intermediate between raw f0 and phonemic categories. These “tone level” annotations represent a discrete numerical version of the dashes often used as a broad phonetic transcription of tone. The number of levels can be set by the researcher, and a number of raw phonetic measures are also outputted by the tool. ATLAS is designed to be used by anyone regardless of experience with tone or computational methods, thus promoting the inclusion of objective, replicable pitch data in documentary, descriptive, or theoretical materials on tone languages. We also show the utility of ATLAS’s broad phonetic annotations in understanding the surface realization of already determined phonemic categories and in making hypotheses about unanalyzed tone systems.","PeriodicalId":233495,"journal":{"name":"6th International Symposium on Tonal Aspects of Languages (TAL 2018)","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121780803","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}

This disorder also affects pitch processing in speech such as lexical tone perception. On the other hand, the phenomenon of tone merging has been observed among some speakers of Hong Kong Cantonese (HKC), who exhibit confusion between certain tone pairs in perception and/or production. It has been reported that tone merging may relate to individual variation in cognitive abilities of working memory and attention. The current study is a first attempt to investigate the relationship between amusia and tone merging by examining tone merging patterns in perception of amusics in HKC and their cognitive abilities of working memory and attention as well as pitch threshold. The results revealed a different profile of amusics from that of merger groups reported in previous studies. Amusics exhibited a profound impairment in discriminating tones compared to musically intact controls, which appeared to differ from the highly selective perceptual confusion of tone pairs reported in the merger groups. Regarding cognitive measures, amusics also demonstrated broad deficits in selective attention, working memory and inhibitory control. The temporary results imply that amusia might have a limited contribution to the previously reported tone merging.","PeriodicalId":233495,"journal":{"name":"6th International Symposium on Tonal Aspects of Languages (TAL 2018)","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121899897","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}

Mizo has four lexical tones, namely, high (H), rising (R) , falling (F) and low (L). Mizo tones are mostly dynamic, except the H tone which is a static tone. Previous researches have reported that the rising tone in Mizo changes into low tone when it is followed by either high tone or falling tone which is regarded as rising tone sandhi. The present study analyzes the production and perception of rising tone sandhi. The production data of rising tone sandhi is carried out by comparing the F0 contours of the derived low tone of rising tone sandhi in trisyllabic phrases with the citation form of low tone and low tone in phrases. Results have shown that the F0 contour of rising tone sandhi and the canonical low tone in Mizo are different in terms of F0 contour. The result of perception study in the form of identification test has shown that the speakers of Mizo could distinguish the low tone derived out of rising tone sandhi from the canonical low tone which indicates that tone sandhi in Mizo is perceptually categorical.","PeriodicalId":233495,"journal":{"name":"6th International Symposium on Tonal Aspects of Languages (TAL 2018)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123998765","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}

The first part of the paper describes the tonal properties of the language (e.g. long-distance tone shift) and its accentual properties (e.g. the insertion of a tone on the stressed syllable of an underlying toneless phrase), and briefly discusses tone reduction at the post-lexical level. In the second part of the paper, the acoustic correlates of tone in the variety of Washili are explored. It is shown in particular that the interplay of tone, stress and vowel aperture can lead to a shift of the metrical prominence that blurs the distinction between tone and accent in the language. Consequences of this process on the prosodic system of Shingazidja, and on our knowledge of tone loss in general, are addressed in a brief discussion.","PeriodicalId":233495,"journal":{"name":"6th International Symposium on Tonal Aspects of Languages (TAL 2018)","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126521834","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}

Our simulations are cast within the context of a synchronic analytical framework developed in earlier work. The framework uses licensing constraints and foot structure to drive various kinds of tonal reassociation. One problem with the framework was that it was able to generate various unattested patterns. We address this problem through the learnability simulations; our results show that the representable-but-unattested patterns are harder to learn, explaining their non-attestation. This way, we demonstrate that learnability simulations are a meaningful tool for a typological account of tonal phenomena.","PeriodicalId":233495,"journal":{"name":"6th International Symposium on Tonal Aspects of Languages (TAL 2018)","volume":"84 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116402341","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}
