本文证实,在巴里意大利语的语调区别是两极的问题问新的信息(在HCRC地图任务编码方案的QUERY-YN移动)和那些问给定的信息(原型的移动在同一个编码方案)。前者,说话者认为信息不共享,因此相互不活跃,采用升调重音(L+H*)。后者,说话者认为信息是相互作用的,用降调(H*+L或H+L*)表示。对于被归类为“提问”的动作,情况更为复杂,这些动作询问的是对话中前面提到的信息,而不是典型的“提问”,即在当前回合之前立即给出信息。这类疑问句询问的是文本上可理解的而不是给定的信息,以及那些只能从上下文中推断出来的东西,它们可以有上升或下降的音调重音。语调的变化与说话人对问句中所寻求的确认将被提供的信心程度有关。
This paper confirms that in Bari Italian an intonational distinction is made between polar questions asking about new information (QUERY-YN moves in the HCRC Map Task coding scheme) and those asking about given information (prototypical CHECK moves in the same coding scheme). The former, where the speaker believes that the information is not shared and therefore mutually inactive, employ a rising pitch accent (L+H*). The latter, where the speaker believes that the information is mutually active, are expressed with a falling accent (H*+L or H+L*). The situation is more complicated for moves classified as CHECKS which are asking about information which has been mentioned earlier in the dialogue as opposed to the prototypical CHECKS where the information is given immediately before the current turn. These CHECKS, asking about textually accessible as opposed to given information, as well as those asking about something which can only be inferred from the context, can have either rising or falling pitch accents. The intonational variation is related to the degree of speaker confidence that confirmation being sought in the question will be provided.
