Intonational phonology of Estonian statements with low level nuclei
暂无分享,去创建一个
This paper investigates low level nuclei in Estonian statements. The intonational phonology of such nuclei is discussed on the basis of tightly controlled data where it appears that similar low level accents occur also in prenuclear position. This leads to the conclusion that the most appropriate analysis is to treat such nuclei as low targets (L*) preceded by a high unstressed syllable (H).
