Temporal determinants of phrasing in coordinated structures in Greek
This study examines the temporal characteristics of utterances, phrases, words and segments in coordinated structures with different phrasings in Greek. Eight speakers (4F, 4M) produced utterances with proper names (henceforth N) coordinated by [ce] ‘and’ in three phrasing conditions [N+N+N], N+[N+N...

description | This study examines the temporal characteristics of utterances, phrases, words and segments in coordinated structures with different phrasings in Greek. Eight speakers (4F, 4M) produced utterances with proper names (henceforth N) coordinated by [ce] ‘and’ in three phrasing conditions [N+N+N], N+[N+N], and [N+N]+N, in normal and fast speech rates. Ns were disyllabic or trisyllabic with penultimate or antepenultimate stress. Results show that phrasing and speech rate influenced different measures. Preboundary lengthening affected the phrase-final word, with largest lengthening on the phrase-final syllable, but extending up to the stressed syllable and affecting segments to different degrees. Utterance, phrase, word, and segment durations were shorter in fast than in normal rate. Overall, results on the effect of phrasing on duration support previous literature on Greek and other languages showing lengthening that extends beyond the final syllable. Novel findings on temporal patterns are reported by the combined effect of phrasing and speech rate. |
