英语极性助词 yes 和 no 在回应否定句时可以互换，也就是说，任何一个都可以用来表达积极和消极的反应。我们对这一现象的最新研究进行了批判性讨论（Kramer & Rawlins 2009；Krifka 2013；Roelofsen & Farkas 2015；Holmberg 2016），这引出了三个问题：“是”和“否”产生的语调是否取决于响应是积极还是消极，以及语调是否会影响对裸极粒子反应的解释？演讲者在什么时候更喜欢使用哪些粒子？偏好模式对上下文中前面句子的极性是否敏感？在一系列实验中，我们证明矛盾轮廓（Liberman & Sag 1974）是一种通常在对否定句子的肯定反应中产生的语调，并且它影响听众对裸粒子反应的解释。除了语调之外，我们的实验结果还提供了关于说话者在回答负面问题和上升陈述时偏好使用“是”和“否”的新证据。最后，我们的结果表明偏好模式对上下文句子的极性不敏感。
English polar particles yes and no are interchangeable in response to negative sentences, that is, either one can be used to convey both positive and negative responses. We provide a critical discussion of recent research into this phenomenon (Kramer & Rawlins 2009; Krifka 2013; Roelofsen & Farkas 2015; Holmberg 2016), which leads to three questions: Does the intonation produced on yes and no depend on whether the response is positive or negative, and can intonation affect the interpretation of bare polar particle responses? Which particles do speakers prefer to use when? Are preference patterns sensitive to the polarity of preceding sentences in the context? In a series of experiments, we demonstrate that the contradiction contour (Liberman & Sag 1974) is an intonation that is commonly produced on positive responses to negative sentences, and that it affects hearers’ interpretations of bare particle responses. Beyond intonation, our experimental results add new evidence regarding speakers’ preferences for using yes and no in response to negative polar questions and rising declaratives. Finally, our results suggest that preference patterns are not sensitive to the polarity of context sentences.
