Abstract:
|
Theoretical studies on the Information Structure–prosody interface argue that the content packaged in terms of theme and rheme
correlates with the intonation of the corresponding sentence. However, there are few empirical studies that support this argument and
even fewer resources that promote reproducibility and scalability of experiments. In this paper, we introduce a methodology for the
compilation of annotated corpora to study the correspondence between Information Structure and prosody. The application of this
methodology is exemplified on a corpus of read speech in English annotated with hierarchical thematicity and automatically extracted
prosodic parameters. |
