Intonation Effects on Cantonese Lexical Tones in Speaking and Singing
 
Ling Zhang
The Hong Kong Polytechnic University
 
Cantonese lexical tones are preserved in both speaking and singing (which can be regarded as a special kind of speech style). Through three phonetic experiments, the present thesis studies the intonation effects on Cantonese lexical tones in speaking and singing. An innovative theoretical framework was proposed, which is a two-dimensional matrix of pitch configuration (slope, register and span) and pitch domain (syllable level and utterance level, including utterance-body and utterance-final portions). Data analyses with this framework identified an updrift intonation in singing speech style, which stands out to be a reference for the universal declination intonation in speaking speech style. Further studies were conducted in speaking speech style with an interdisciplinary approach of phonetics and syntax: declarative and interrogative utterances with and without sentence-final particles (SFP, henceforth) were systematically compared. The results suggested that the utterance-final intonation is a kind of segmentless SFP. This study enriches the knowledge of intonation typology and provides further insight into the interrelated concepts of tone, intonation and SFP.

Japanese Pronunciation & Accents
Geo-social Applications of the Natural Phonetics & Tonetics Method
 
Luciano Canepari & Francesca Miscio
University of Venice; Musashino University of Music, Tokyo
 
This book applies the principles of Natural Phonetics & Tonetics to describe the pronunciation of Japanese, including intonation, in a precise way never found in earlier treatises (even those by native phoneticians). It includes an introduction to the Natural Phonotonetics Method, which can be used for any other language, as well (without the sadly known limitations of official IPA).
The vowels, consonants, structures, and intonation of Japanese are fully described and transcribed, with many examples of words, sentences, and conversations, in addition to the intonationally integrated IPA sample passage ‘The North Wind and the Sun’.
Different types of Japanese pronunciation are described, including neutral, mediatic, and 20 local accents (and one diachronic stage).
A mini-phono-dictionary contains more than 500 words and proper names usually puzzling and challenging especially for foreigners.
The typical Japanese pronunciation by foreign speakers is also included.

Fundamentos para el análisis de las habilidades comunicativas orales del alumnado de Educación Infantil
 
Francisco J. Rodríguez Muñoz
Universidad de Almería
 
Prologado por Clara U. Lorda Mur
 
La monografía pretende satisfacer las necesidades del profesorado de educación inicial en formación a propósito de la identificación, la descripción y el análisis de los componentes comunicativos que emergen durante los primeros años. Con una intención clarificadora, tales habilidades se ordenan, al modo tradicional, en cuatro ámbitos: fonético-fonológico, morfosintáctico, léxico-semántico y pragmático-discursivo. A lo largo del texto, se exponen los conceptos elementales para su comprensión, se asocian categorías analíticas concretas, se propone el examen de muestras de habla infantil espontánea y se aportan instrumentos de evaluación.
 
Francisco J. Rodríguez Muñoz es doctor en Lingüística y profesor de Didáctica de la Lengua y la Literatura en la Universidad de Almería (España). Entre sus investigaciones, destacan las dedicadas al estudio del desarrollo típico y atípico ―especialmente, en el síndrome de Asperger― de las habilidades comunicativas orales durante la infancia, así como a sus repercusiones didácticas ―tanto las que se orientan al alumnado cuanto a la preparación docente―. Algunos de estos trabajos han aparecido en revistas como Pragmatics (IPrA); Research in LanguagePsychology of Language and CommunicationRevista de Lingüística Teórica y Aplicada; o Didáctica. Lengua y Literatura.

Die Transkription der Sprachlaute des Internationalen Phonetischen Alphabets: Vorschläge zu einer Revision der systematischen Darstellung der IPA-Tabelle
 
Werner Kalusky
Universität Hamburg
 
Das Internationale Phonetische Alphabet (IPA) ist das auf der Welt mit Abstand am meisten verbreitete phonetische Transkriptionssystem. Es hat sich sowohl zu wissenschaftlichen als auch zu didaktischen Zwecken für viele Sprachen und für viele Anwendungen bewährt.
 
Dennoch gibt es für das System eine ganze Reihe von Verbesserungsmöglichkeiten, wofür in der Literatur immer wieder viele sinnvolle Revisionsvorschläge unterbreitet wurden. Hiervon wurden jedoch seit der letzten großen Reform des IPA von 1989 nur sehr wenige aufgenommen und in das System eingearbeitet, entsprechend hoch ist dessen Revisionsbedarf.
 
Hier setzt die vorliegende Arbeit an: Unter Berücksichtigung der lautlichen Erscheinungen in den Sprachen der Welt wird diskutiert, wo Möglichkeiten zur Verbesserung bestehen und wie diese aussehen könnten. Hierzu wird zunächst die Entstehungsgeschichte des IPA beschrieben und dann detailliert kritisch auf die darin verwendeten Prinzipien zur Transkription von Sprachlauten eingegangen. Anschließend wird nach Aufstellung geeigneter Prinzipien ein umfangreicher Revisionsvorschlag ausgearbeitet, in welchem insgesamt fünf verschiedene Tabellen unterschiedlichen Umfangs und für verschiedene Zielgruppen vorgestellt werden. Insbesondere in dem umfangreichsten, vier Seiten umfassenden Tabellenvorschlag wird eine aufwändige und detaillierte Transkriptionstabelle vorgelegt, mit der phonetisch deutlich genauere Transkriptionen ermöglicht werden.
 
Mit der Arbeit wird der Versuch unternommen, Schwachstellen der jetzigen IPA-Tabelle zu beheben und die Darstellung der Gesamttabelle in vielerlei Hinsicht zu optimieren. Im Anhang werden neben der Darstellung einiger Transkriptionstabellen aus verschiedenen Werken insbesondere auch sämtliche Tabellenfassungen der IPA zusammengestellt.
