Prominence Contrasts in Czech English as a Predictor of Learner's Proficiency

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The study investigates prominence patterns in Czech-accented English comparing the production of non-native speakers of English at two distinct stages of phonological acquisition (beginners and intermediates) with a native performance. Word stress in Czech is entirely different from English, it has a fixed position, a delimitative function and rather impalpable acoustic manifestations. Alternations in the realization of word stress were analyzed by measuring the ratios or differences of acoustic correlates of prominence: duration, fundamental frequency, sound pressure level and spectral slope. Since word stress is a relational phenomenon, these characteristics were measured in two adjacent syllables one of which was a canonical stress bearer. The results reveal a clear difference between native and non-native treatment of word stress in all parameters examined. In the non-native sample distinct interferences of L1 across the two groups were detected: the subjects displayed different ex
