{"title":"Uptalk in Chicano Southern California English","authors":"Madeline Asch, Franny D. Brogan","doi":"10.1215/00031283-9940687","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1215/00031283-9940687","url":null,"abstract":"The present study aims to build on limited Chicano English intonation research by exploring the frequency, phonetic properties, timing, and potential origins of uptalk in neutral declarative statements of Chicano Southern California English (CSCE). Fifteen native CSCE speakers and five native Anglo Southern California English (ASCE) speakers from the Los Angeles Metropolitan Area (all college-age women) participated in three tasks varying in their formality. Five measures were examined across dialects and within the CSCE speaker group: uptalk frequency, starting pitch, scaling, rise alignment, and peak delay. Results show that CSCE and ASCE speakers produce extremely similar uptalk contours both in how often they occur and in their phonetic manifestations, suggesting that ASCE uptalk, rather than the Mexican Spanish circumflex contour, is the main source of intonational transfer for final rising in CSCE. Furthermore, while Angela Barry proposes that ASCE uptalk is unmarked, we find that uptalk frequency is conditioned by task formality for both dialect groups, indicating that this variable may have since risen above the level of consciousness. The amount of Spanish spoken in childhood and the academic environment of the colleges attended by our CSCE participants also affect how often uptalk is produced and its beginning pitch level.","PeriodicalId":46508,"journal":{"name":"American Speech","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135222538","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On Intensifying and Emphasizing Uses of Preverbal <i>so</i> in Present-Day American English","authors":"Ulrike Stange","doi":"10.1215/00031283-9940665","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1215/00031283-9940665","url":null,"abstract":"The present study addresses the question of whether preverbal so, also known as “GenX so,” which can be used as an intensifier and as an emphasizer, is going out of fashion as a means of emphasis in present-day American English as demonstrated in scripted soap operas. The results are based on 1,357 tokens of preverbal so extracted from Mark Davies’s Corpus of American Soap Operas (2011–). These tokens create both real- and apparent-time scenarios to detect potential differences in the use of preverbal so for younger and older, woman and man characters. The data suggest the following trend: between 2001 and 2012, so with emphatic do and perfects is on its way out, while all other uses of preverbal so (e.g., so with simple forms or progressives) are still associated with the speech of female characters in general or with younger woman characters in particular (so with future going to). If TV data reflects the intensifier’s use in natural speech, preverbal so can be taken to have grown stale in some contexts.","PeriodicalId":46508,"journal":{"name":"American Speech","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134951523","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Kyoo, This Word Sounds Weird: A Case Study of a Cajun English Interjection","authors":"Lauren Vidrine, Irina A. Shport","doi":"10.1215/00031283-9940643","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1215/00031283-9940643","url":null,"abstract":"The interjection kyoo/kaw is used in the English and French of Cajun heritage speakers in Louisiana to express surprise and has not been previously documented. Anecdotally, Cajuns and non-Cajuns alike comment that it sounds “weird,” as if the word is “not English.” A survey confirms that the interjection is perceived as atypical sounding when compared to mainstream English words, even more so for the palatalized pronunciation variant (kyoo) than the nonpalatalized variant (kaw). The authors hypothesize that this perception could stem from acoustic characteristics of the interjection consistent with linguistic identity markers in Cajun speakers, attributable to Cajun French influence or to the Cajun English vernacular. Acoustic analyses show that the interjection-initial/k/is not unaspirated, its vowel is not nasalized, and it has spectral quality similar to/O/in mainstream English words. These results suggest the perception of anomalous sounds in this interjection may not be attributed to acoustic characteristics indicative of French influence. An alternative explanation to the acoustic-phonetic characteristics of kyoo/kaw lies in social representations of Cajun English in a historically bilingual and multidialectal community, where perceived oddness of a nonstandard linguistic expression can be easily attributed to the influence of another language.","PeriodicalId":46508,"journal":{"name":"American Speech","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135702906","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
