Abstract In this study, the intonation of one-word imperatives is compared with that of one-word declaratives in Peninsular Spanish in order to establish differences and similarities between them. The analysis of 373 utterances produced by 8 speakers (117 in a declarative context and 256 in an imperative context) demonstrates that the intonational link between declaratives and imperatives is irrefutable since L+H* L% configurations are found in both pragmatic contexts. Nevertheless, imperatives can also show tonal movements not found in declaratives: L+H* LH%, L+H* HL%, L+H* H%, L* H%. Finally, the study demonstrates that due to the limitations short imperative utterances involve, speakers implement tonal movements rarely attested in imperatives with multiple pitch accents.

读！–关于西班牙语中短命令的国际性质

摘要在本研究中，比较了西班牙语半岛中单词命令式和单词命令式的语调，以建立两者之间的异同。对8个说话者（在陈述性语境中为117个，在命令式语境中为256个）产生的373言语的分析表明，由于在两种语用语境中都发现了L + H * L％构型，所以陈述语和命令式之间的国际联系是无可辩驳的。但是，命令式也可以显示在声明式中找不到的音调移动：L + H * LH％，L + H * HL％，L + H * H％，L * H％。最后，研究表明，由于局限性简短的祈使语气，说话者在具有多个音高重音的祈使语中很少进行音调运动。
