Prosody is a critical component of spoken communication. Loosely defined, prosody is ?how words are spoken?, as opposed to ?what words are said?. Prosody is typically defined to include pitch, intensity, and timing -- and systematic variation in these parameters can reinforce or augment a speaker?s intended meaning. Prosody provides important information at every linguistic level, disambiguating syntax, augmenting semantics and pragmatic information, e.g. by conveying information about phrasal grouping and phrase-level prominence. Emotions and other speaker-state information are also communicated through a speaker?s prosody. Although this aspect of speech is important, it remains under-investigated. A major limiting factor is the lack of large sample of prosodically labeled speech. Prosody researchers at CUNY, Columbia and MIT are developing Reciprosody, a web source of prosodically annotated data and tools for analysis. Reciprosody makes critical resources for the study and teaching of prosody available to a growing and diverse population of researchers, students, and technologists. This website hosts data in any language, annotated under any prosody standard. The only restriction for hosting data in the repository is that it must be made freely available for academic and educational activities. Reciprosody is not merely a passive repository, but an active resource for researchers and educators to communicate with each other on a regular basis. This enables the resource to be a center not only for annotated data, but information and support related to ongoing prosody research.

韵律是口语交际的重要组成部分。松散地定义，韵律是什么？语言是如何表达的？，而不是？说了什么话？韵律通常被定义为包括音高、强度和时间——这些参数的系统变化可以强化或增强说话者的能力。意思是有意的。韵律在每个语言层次上都提供重要的信息，消除语法歧义，增加语义和语用信息，例如通过传递短语分组和短语层次突出的信息。情绪和其他说话人状态的信息也通过说话人来传达。年代的韵律。虽然言语的这一方面很重要，但它仍未得到充分的研究。一个主要的限制因素是缺乏韵律标记语音的大样本。纽约市立大学、哥伦比亚大学和麻省理工学院的韵律研究人员正在开发Reciprosody，这是一个韵律注释数据和分析工具的网络资源。reprosody为越来越多的研究人员、学生和技术人员提供了韵律研究和教学的关键资源。本网站以任何语言提供数据，以任何韵律标准注释。在存储库中托管数据的唯一限制是必须免费提供给学术和教育活动。Reciprosody不仅是一个被动的存储库，而且是研究人员和教育工作者定期相互交流的主动资源。这使得资源不仅是注释数据的中心，而且是与正在进行的韵律研究相关的信息和支持的中心。
