在这一章中,我将展示特定的韵律标记线索被参与者在德语会话中用来区分“正常”和所谓的“惊讶”或“惊讶”的问题在启动修复。这种区别似乎只通过韵律手段来表示。韵律无标记的启动修复和他们的显着的同行被证明是构建不同的亚型内修复序列,因为它们使不同的顺序相关的下一个回合的影响。不像一个韵律无标记的配置在修复启动,这是用来信号的“正常”的问题的听力和理解,韵律标记的配置是用来作为一个“惊讶”或“惊讶”的信号的问题的期望,需要特殊处理。通过韵律标记,任何问题和/或修复启动形式都可以成为一个“惊讶”的问题。然而,“惊讶”问题的使用仅限于修复序列的启动。在本章的第一节,我将介绍我的术语和我的分析所依据的前提。在第2节中,我将首先介绍本文所分析的特定对比的说明性例子,然后在第3节中更详细地阐述我的分析目标。在第4节中,进一步的数据提取中,有标记与无标记的韵律之间的对比被证明是相关的各种不同的修复启动类型的会话。这些数据将被用来证明,为了阐明的基础上,参与者的不同解释的修复启动类型-启动类型是类似的语言结构和措辞-韵律必须考虑。结论见第5节。
In this chapter, I shall show that specific prosodic marking cues are used by participants in German conversation to distinguish between ‘normal’ and so-called ‘surprised’ or ‘astonished’ questions in the initiation of repair. This distinction appears to be indicated by prosodic means only. Prosodically unmarked initiations of repair and their marked counterparts are shown to construct different subtypes within repair sequences, in that they make different sequential implications relevant for the next turn. Unlike a prosodically unmarked configuration in repair initiation, which is used to signal ‘normal’ problems of hearing and understanding, a prosodically marked configuration is used as an ‘astonished’ or ‘surprised’ signalling of a problem of expectation which requires special treatment. Via prosodic marking, any question and/or repair-initiation form can be made into an ‘astonished’ question. The use of ‘astonished’ questions, however, is restricted to the initiation of repair sequences. In section 1 of the chapter, I shall give an introduction to my terminology and the premises underlying my analysis. In section 2,1 shall present a first illustrative example of the particular contrast under analysis in this paper, before explicating the goals of my analysis in more detail in section 3. In section 4, further data extracts are presented in which the contrast between marked versus unmarked prosody is shown to be relevant for a variety of different repair-initiation types in conversation. These data will be used to argue that in order to explicate the basis of participants' differential interpretation of repair-initiation types – initiation types which are similar in linguistic structure and wording – prosody must necessarily be taken into account. Conclusions are drawn in section 5.
