1、语言学课件超音段特征Suprasegmental features are those aspects of speech that involve more than single sound segments.语言学课件超音段特征语音单位在语流中有前后的顺序, 它们的组合呈线形的, 称线性组合。据线性组合的先后顺序切分出来的语音单位, 各占一定的时间段落, 所以也称音段。 语流中最小的音段是音位, 因此音位也称音段音位( segmental phonemes ), 即元音(vowels)和辅音(consonants)。 但是在实际语流中, 语音成素还有一种非线性的共时组合。当音位前后连缀组
2、合成较大的音段时, 往往具有原来所没有的某种语音成素作为它的特征及组成部分。这种较大音段所具有的语音成素超越了原来的较小音段的线性组合, 因而具有超音段的性质。因此我们在这里要研究超音段特征。 语言学课件超音段特征For exampleinstinct instikt(本能) television teli,vin (电视)语言学课件超音段特征2.5.1 The Syllable Structure monosyllable: with one syllable, like cat and dogPolysyllable: with more than one syllable, like t

For long words, there are often two stressed syllables primary stressed and secondary stressed syllables.eg. communication k,mju:nikein epiphenomenal ,epifnminl 语言学课件超音段特征At the sentence level In general situation, notional words are normally stressed while structural words are unstr

11、rudeness and abruptness.语言学课件超音段特征The fall-rise tone in English typically involves the meaning of a contrast within a limited set of items stated explicitly or implicitly.e.g.She is beautiful.-isnt her name Mary? -No, Jenny.语言学课件超音段特征2.5.4 ToneChinese is a kind of tone language 语言学课件超音段特征In Chinese tone changes are used in a different way, affecting the meanings of individual words. e.g. ying 同音异形字语言学课件超音段特征Bye-bye语言学课件超音段特征此课件下载可自行编辑修改,供参考!此课件下载可自行编辑修改,供参考!感谢你的支持,我们会努力做得更好!感谢你的支持,我们会努力做得更好!
