摘要

摘要本研究的目的是描述西班牙语和英语呼求词的旋律轮廓，以识别跨语言的异同。此外，它还探讨了形式的社会语用因素如何影响两种语言的轮廓选择。18名说西班牙语的人和18名说英语的人在正式和非正式场合共产生了432个单词动词。对F轮廓的分析表明，尽管西班牙语和英语在这种言语行为中共享多个旋律(例如L+H* L%， L* H%和L+H* !H%)，但有些音调是特定于语言的(例如西班牙语的L+H* HL%)。此外，一般线性混合模型证实，这些轮廓在所有情况下都不是平等的，并且情况的正式性可以限制它们的使用。

Vocative melodies in Spanish and English

Abstract This study aims to describe the melodic contours used in Spanish and English calling vocatives in order to identify cross-linguistic similarities and differences. Additionally, it also explores how the sociopragmatic factor of formality may condition contour choices in both languages. 18 speakers of Spanish and 18 speakers of English produced a total of 432 one-word vocatives in formal and informal situations. The analyses of the F contours revealed that, although Spanish and English share multiple melodies in this speech act (e.g. L+H* L%, L* H% and L+H* !H%), some tones are language-specific (e.g. L+H* HL% for Spanish). In addition, a General Linear Mixed Model confirmed that these contours are not equally attested in all contexts and that the formality of the situation can condition their use.

期刊介绍： Languages in Contrast aims to publish contrastive studies of two or more languages. Any aspect of language may be covered, including vocabulary, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics, text and discourse, stylistics, sociolinguistics and psycholinguistics. Languages in Contrast welcomes interdisciplinary studies, particularly those that make links between contrastive linguistics and translation, lexicography, computational linguistics, language teaching, literary and linguistic computing, literary studies and cultural studies.
