The rhythmic structure of sentences in the Textbook of Chinese Conversation

Original language description

A team of two Czech authors and one Chinese published the Textbook of Chinese Conversation at the end of 2007: The book was primarily a reaction to the absence of a modern textbook of colloquial Chinese for beginners in the Czech language environment. Its text is compiled entirely in pinyin transcription, not in Chinese characters. Over the course of the preparation of the textbook, it was unfortunately necessary to abandon the use of the prosodic transcription of modern colloquial Chinese. The transcription is based on the existence of syllables of varied prominences in the Chinese language with the prominence hierarchy system respecting linear segmentation within the Chinese sentence. The prominences and segmentation constitute the rhythm structures typifying the standard of the modern Chinese language. The employment, however, of the textbook in the teaching process has demonstrated that the absence of a prosodic transcription was a not insignificant source of unpleasant restrictions. Consequently, over the course of the autumn and winter of 2010, a transcription of the entire work material was composed and analysed a year later. The result of the project is not only the transcription itself, but also a deeper understanding of phonological representations in a modern Chinese colloquial text.
