语音学提供了一个系统,通过这个系统,有限数量的语音变异类型可以在多个语言分析层次上发出交际意图的信号。由于语音因语言而异,因此学习一种语言的语音要求学习适当地归因于语音变化。在这里,我们研究了音高轮廓变化的情况。在英语中,音高轮廓并不区分单词,但具有其他功能,如标记是/否问题和传达情感。我们发现,根据他们的语音,讲英语的成年人和2岁的孩子不解释固有的新颖的话突出的音高轮廓。我们教参与者一个具有一致的音段和音高特征的新词,然后使用基于眼睛注视的程序测试训练和异常发音的单词识别。元音质量的发音错误会损害识别,但音高轮廓的大变化不会。到2岁时,孩子们已经运用他们的英语语音学知识来解释他们对单词的经验中的音标。
Phonology provides a system by which a limited number of types of phonetic variation can signal communicative intentions at multiple levels of linguistic analysis. Because phonologies vary from language to language, acquiring the phonology of a language demands learning to attribute phonetic variation appropriately. Here, we studied the case of pitch-contour variation. In English, pitch contour does not differentiate words, but serves other functions, like marking yes/no questions and conveying emotions. We show that, in accordance with their phonology, English-speaking adults and 2-year-olds do not interpret salient pitch contours as inherent to novel words. We taught participants a new word with consistent segmental and pitch characteristics, and then tested word recognition for trained and deviant pronunciations using an eyegaze-based procedure. Vowel-quality mispronunciations impaired recognition, but large changes in pitch contour did not. By age 2, children already apply their knowledge of English phonology to interpret phonetic consistencies in their experience with words.
