چکیده

This study about the melism stuff (or melodic substance) i s the continuation of previous ones since several years [for instance 1, 2]. Those studies dealing with a global analysis, this present one will examine in details the processes used by 4 speakers to hightlight F0 prominences at the morphophonological level of the melisms. As the major interest of the study lays upon the repetition patterns, the differences between them and between speech strategies accross speakers will be questionned.

However, no research has directly investigated how these two types of distinctions are simultaneously encoded in speech production. This study provides evidence that F0 prominences intended to convey linguistic or affective distinctions can be differentiated by their influ...

The Phonology of Melodic Prominence: the Structure of Melisms

This paper aims at proposing a surface phonological tonal annotation and stylization fitted to the lexical space. More precisely it makes it possible to phonologically structure the F0 variations in prominent words. In previous studies, this specific F0 configuration in such words has been called melism. These principles are integrated in an automatic procedure (INTSMEL) which supplies an autom...

Perlocutory Values and Functions of Melisms in Spontaneous Dialogue

Following earlier work [3][5][6], this study, based on a corpus of spontaneous dialogue, aims to define melisms as opposed to intonation and to specify not only their forms, but also their meanings and functions. Melisms appear to be directly related to the domain of beliefs, of subjective values and hence of their perlocutory effects. The study shows in particular how melisms, beliefs and moti...
