摘要

背景/目的:本研究旨在探讨在自音段格律模型框架下,具有不同二语经验长度的汉语母语使用者如何感知英语焦点疑问句调(L*H-H%)。方法:邀请18名在美居住时间长短不同的普通话使用者和18名英语使用者感知韵律突出性并判断焦点韵律曲调的自然度。结果:对于非焦点音高重音L*的感知,普通话使用者在突出检测任务中表现良好,但在焦点识别任务中表现不佳。对于后焦点边缘调,我们发现短语重音比边界调更容易受到L1的影响,因为这些语调类别之间的跨语言相似性程度不同。结果还表明,即使是具有扩展二语经验的听者,他们对二语疑问句焦点曲调的感知也不熟练。结论:本研究揭示了考虑L1-L2相似程度的优势,以及从语音和语音两个维度分别考察跨语言对韵律感知的影响的必要性。

Cross-Linguistic Influences on L2 Prosody Perception: Evidence from English Interrogative Focus Perception by Mandarin Listeners.

Background/objectives: This study sets out to explore how L1 Mandarin speakers with varying lengths of L2 experience perceived English focus interrogative tune, L*H-H%, within the framework of the autosegmental-metrical model.

Methods: Eighteen Mandarin speakers with varying lengths of residence in the United States and eighteen English native speakers were invited to perceive prosodic prominence and judge the naturalness of focus prosody tunes.

Results: For the perception of on-focus pitch accent L*, Mandarin speakers performed well in the prominence detection task but not in the focus identification task. For post-focus edge tones, we found that phrase accents were more susceptible to L1 influences than boundary tones due to the varying degrees of cross-linguistic similarity between these intonational categories. The results also show that even listeners with extended L2 experience were not proficient in their perception of L2 interrogative focus tunes.

Conclusions: This study reveals the advantage of considering the degree of L1-L2 similarity and the necessity to examine cross-linguistic influences on L2 perception of prosody separately in phonological and phonetic dimensions.

期刊介绍: Brain Sciences (ISSN 2076-3425) is a peer-reviewed scientific journal that publishes original articles, critical reviews, research notes and short communications in the areas of cognitive neuroscience, developmental neuroscience, molecular and cellular neuroscience, neural engineering, neuroimaging, neurolinguistics, neuropathy, systems neuroscience, and theoretical and computational neuroscience. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Electronic files or software regarding the full details of the calculation and experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material.
