Phonetic and Phonological Evidence for Intermediate Phrasing in Spanish Intonation

Abstract

dc:description

In Spanish, each intonation phrase is comprised of at least one or more intermediate phrases. By definition, the end of an intonation phrase is also the end of its final intermediate phrase, and in this position, T- and the boundary tone T% (marking an intonation-phrase boundary) combine to determine utterance-final F0 movement. The fact that both T- and T% appear in intonation-phrase final position in Spanish now calls for a reanalysis of basic F0 contours in the language within the AM framework.
