The Prosody of the Czech Discourse Marker ‘Jasně’: An Analysis of Forms and Functions
Original language description
Discourse markers are short expressions that occur with highly varied and expressive prosodic patterns. The prosodic forms that express eight pragmatic functions of the Czech discourse marker "jasně", including resignation, reassurance, surprise, indifference or impatience were studied in a collection of 172 tokens from a corpus of scripted dialogues by 30 native speakers. Acoustic analyses were supplemented with classification algorithms and solicited judgments from native listeners in a perceptual experiment. There appeared to be multi-parametric differences in terms of F0, timing and intensity patterns, which gave rise to consistent form-function mappings. Although the most significant prosodic parameters used for clustering analysis involved segment durations, all pragmatic functions were expressed by patterns of multiple features.
