Whatisourgoal?

CanIrelyonpre-recordeddata?• Yes it is possible, but you need to have good
resources to back you up• Narratives can be restrictive – typical kind of
story-telling prosody unless this is a specific research question!
• Much of our earlier work – based on stories

Recordingspeakers?
• Record several speakers if possible, females and males (not always easy – we have a lot of recordings from women in our latest project)
• Child language acquisition – work with mothers, carers
(afterHimmelmann&Ladd2008)42

Findingspeakers
• Speaker demographics – some speakers may be last remaining speakers of a language
• Helpful to have access to someone in the community (teachers, medical workers) who can help put you in touch with speakers
(afterHimmelmann&Ladd2008)43

Recordingtasks
• Think carefully about recording environment, material construction to facilitate acoustic analysis
• You may not be able to replicate laboratory-like conditions but you can find a quiet room (e.g. School), use uni-directional, head-mounted mikes etc.

Elicitedorspontaneousdata?
• Cannot assume literacy• Picture-based interactive tasks or games
have been used with some success in many different recording contexts (e.g. Quismaterials developed by Skopoteas et al. 2006, also see also interactive games, tasks outlined in Burdin et al., 2015)

• Important to tease apart word and phrase-level prosody
• Isolated words form their own prosodic phrase so this is not the place to start, often hyperarticulated, focused
• Need to examine words in the context of a multiword phrase, preferably manipulating position

• If a language has been described by linguists as having “stress” we would expect some kind of non-default pitch movement/target in and around the putatively stressed syllable (e.g. falling, rising, high, low) – not withstanding segmental perturbation effects
• Choose a 3 or 4 syllable word and place it in short declarative utterance

PerceptionandProcessing?
• At the end of the day, we want to document and model meaningful intonational variation in languages that have AM models
• Are speakers sensitive to prominence-lending pitch movements in different contexts (the old “is this really stress” problem?)
• If you have analysed different acoustic correlates of accentual prominence – are these actually perceptible?

TakeHomeMessage• Don’t assume that strong F0 peaks and valleys
are due to stress in non-lexical tone languages - tones/tunes may have flexible docking arrangements i.e. first/second syllable of initial word, anywhere in first foot (e.g. Bininj Gun-wok, Mawng Bishop 2002, Hellmuth et al. 2007)
• Be prepared that there may not be the same variety of tone categories that are found in English, German, Dutch, Greek, Italian, Spanish…

TakeHomeMessage• There may be more than one phonetic
realization of a single tonal category (e.g. prominence lending F0 peaks that are realisedon a syllable or show “peak delay” – i.e. F0 peak delay on a following syllable – may be one and the same pitch accent
• Be prepared to test and modify your anlysis as more phonetic data come on line

TakeHomeMessage
• Look closely at phrasing and pitch range in all types of languages - chunking happens in all languages!
• Assume some kind of underlying symbolic structure – meaning is not directly transducedfrom the F0 signal!
