구어말뭉치에 나타난 대등연결어미 운율의 양상

The purpose of our study is to demonstrate Continuation Rises(CR) in Korean by analyzing the prosody of coordinating connective endings and their distributions. The motivation of our study is that CR is affected by physiological conditions which decide the mechanism of human utterance and also is cross-linguistically found in many other languages such as French, Dutch, and Spanish. Specifically, we annotated additional information to ‘New Yonsei Corpus 2’ to extract the proper tokens of coordinating connective endings and examined their prosodies. Our result showed that ‘H’ occurs more frequently than ‘L’ with coordinating connective endings. Moreover, we found that ‘M’ usually co-occurs with ‘imperfect Intonation Phrase’ with coordinating connective endings and that ‘H’ is correlated with dependency of antecedent clauses on following clauses.
