Nuevas aportaciones al estudio funcional de la entonación coloquial: propuesta ecléctica de integración de modelos de análisis

2017

Se muestran las ventajas de vincular el modelo interactivo de análisis entonativo fonético-funcional (Hidalgo 2011; 2014) con el denominado modelo de Análisis Melódico del Habla (Cantero 2002; Font 2007; Cantero y Font 2007; Cantero y Mateo 2011) en la idea de que esto permitirá contribuir de mejor manera a: precisar la descripción de la versatilidad funcional de la entonación, marcar con la mayor nitidez posible los límites lingüísticos del estudio prosódico y favorecer los avances en el estudio pragmaprosódico de la conversación coloquial, lagunas habituales en la investigación del componente prosódico. A la exhaustividad metodológica del modelo de Análisis Melódico del Habla se añade una…

Auditory and Cognitive Deficits Associated with Acquired Amusia after Stroke: A Magnetoencephalography and Neuropsychological Follow-Up Study

2010

Acquired amusia is a common disorder after damage to the middle cerebral artery (MCA) territory. However, its neurocognitive mechanisms, especially the relative contribution of perceptual and cognitive factors, are still unclear. We studied cognitive and auditory processing in the amusic brain by performing neuropsychological testing as well as magnetoencephalography (MEG) measurements of frequency and duration discrimination using magnetic mismatch negativity (MMNm) recordings. Fifty-three patients with a left (n = 24) or right (n = 29) hemisphere MCA stroke (MRI verified) were investigated 1 week, 3 months, and 6 months after the stroke. Amusia was evaluated using the Montreal Battery of …

The Phono(im)politeness: (Dis)courtesy prosodic marks in Spanish spoken. Their study via oral corpus

2013

En este artículo se intenta mostrar la relevancia de los mecanismos fónicos, y particularmente de la entonación, para la expresión de cortesía o descortesía verbales. La descripción de tal relación se lleva a cabo a partir de una selección de fragmentos de habla que han servido para fundamentar nuestra hipótesis de partida y que proceden de un corpus diverso: por un lado, de conversaciones coloquiales (Briz y Grupo Val.Es.Co, 2002); por otro, de dos series de TV emitidas por la cadena Antena 3 (Manos a la obra, capítulo: "¡Cómo está el patio!" y Doctor Mateo, capítulo: "De cómo Mateo comprende que eso que siente son celos y no indigestión") y, finalmente, otros son ejemplos derivados de inv…

On the construction, comparison, and exchangeability of tuning systems

2015

The aim of this article is to describe mathematically different tuning systems, to study their mathematical properties, and to propose a construction allowing their comparison. In order to reach these goals, we introduce a concept of similarity between tuning systems and then we provide two sufficient conditions for the particular case in which a tuning system generated by an interval and a circulating temperament are compared. Finally, we show by means of an example that, for two tuning systems to be exchangeable, some well-known results determining the suitable number of notes per octave are not enough.

¡Entonemos del revés!: algunas estrategias para mejorar la entonación emocional de los alumnos de ELE / Let’s modulate our voice inside out!: some st…

2019

En este artículo se propone una secuencia de actividades basada en algunas ideas del Método verbo-tonal (Guberina/Murillo, 2008; Padilla, 2018) la cual consta de cinco actividades, secuenciadas en percepción-producción/consciente-inconsciente (Padilla, 2015), para practicar la entonación expresiva. El elemento motivador que se emplea a lo largo de la secuencia didáctica es la película Del revés. En esta secuencia de actividades perseguimos dos objetivos: contrastar la entonación neutra con la emotiva y practicar la entonación neutra y emotiva en enunciados declarativos. Para ello, haremos una contrastación de los valores emotivos con los neutros, trabajando las seis emociones básicas: alegr…

Prosodic phenomena in simultaneous interpreting

2005

This paper reports on an empirical study on prosody in English-German simultaneous interpreting. It discusses prosody with particular reference to its tonal, durational and dynamic features, such as intonation, pauses, rhythm and accent, as well as its main functions, i.e. structure and prominence. Following a review of previous studies on the topic, a conceptual approach for the analysis of prosody in terms of structure and prominence is developed and subsequently applied to an authentic corpus of professional simultaneous interpretation consisting of three German versions of a 72-minute English source text. Prosodic patterns in the corpus are analyzed by means of a computer-aided method u…

Cantus: Construction and evaluation of a software solution for real-time vocal music training and musical intonation assessment

2016

The development of the ability to sing or play in tune is one of the most critical tasks in music training. In music education, melodic patterns are usually learned by imitative processes (modelling). Once modelled, pitch sounds are then associ-ated to a representation according to a syllabic system such as the Guidonian system - or an arbitrary single syllable - or western graphic notation system symbols. From a didactic standpoint, few advances have been made in this area besides the use of audio-supported guides and existing software, which use a microphone to analyse the input and estimate the pitch or fundamental frequency of the given tone. However, these programmes lack the necessary…

La entonación del español hablado por italianos

2011

En este trabajo describimos los rasgos melódicos de un grupo de italianos hablantes de español, con el método de análisis melódico del habla puesto a punto en el laboratorio de fonética de la Universidad de Barcelona. Nuestro objetivo es caracterizar su interlengua, con el fin de implementar la enseñanza de la pronunciación en este contexto. Hemos utilizado un corpus de 254 enunciados, de los cuales hemos seleccionado para el análisis 99 (49 interrogativas y 50 neutras). Los enunciados fueron producidos por 12 informantes, todos ellos italianos y hablantes avanzados de español. Los resultados del análisis nos permiten proponer los rasgos melódicos de la entonación prelingüística de los ital…

Pitch contours in Russian yes/no questions by Finns

2010

The aim of this paper is to determine the pitch contours Finns use when uttering yes/no questions in Russian. In addition, the pitch contours will be compared to native speech as well as subjected to native speaker evaluation. So far, there has been very little research on the prosody of Russian as a second language. L1 Finnish students are an interesting group to study because intonation in Finnish is not distinctive whereas in Russian it is. peerReviewed
