虽然韵律在语音的可懂性和自然度方面都起着重要的作用，但是从语言信息生成自然韵律的过程还没有被完全理解。本文首先在分析基频曲线的基础上定义了日语口语韵律单位。韵律词由重音成分的存在来定义，而韵律短语和分句由停顿的存在/不存在和短语成分的重置/添加来定义。结果表明，重音成分，代表有关词汇词重音的信息，系统地修改的句法和语篇信息。本文还对韵律边界进行了分类，并描述了韵律边界和韵律边界之间的关系。<<ETX>>
Although it has been well known that prosody plays an important role both in the intelligibility and in the naturalness of speech, the process of generating natural prosody from linguistic information has not been fully understood. The authors first define units of prosody of spoken Japanese on the basis of analysis of fundamental frequency contours. Prosodic words are defined by the presence of an accent component, while prosodic phrases and clauses are defined by the presence/absence of a pause and resetting/addition of a phrase component. It is shown that the accent components, representing the information concerning lexical word accent, are modified systematically by the syntactic and the discourse information. Classifications of prosodic boundaries are also presented, and the relationship between these two kinds of boundary is described.<<ETX>>
