ABSTRACT:Since its first discussion by Y. R. Chao in the early 20th century (1933, 1968), the phenomenon he referred to as "successive tonal addition" has been highly controversial. According to Chao, this intonation phenomenon expresses different moods and attitudes and manifests itself as rising and falling, non-lexical, pitch-movements added to the lexical contours of utterance-final syllables. Due to the lack of technological means at the time Chao could offer no instrumental evidence for his claims. Since 2004, numerous falling and rising pitch-phenomena reminiscent of Chao's "successive tonal additions" have been observed by this author, who refers to "utterance-final edge tones" (Ju wei jiayin句尾加音) (Mueller-Liu 2004, 2006, 2008).Expanding these earlier publications and containing new, hitherto unpublished data, this paper is a detailed account of the author's findings, including acoustic analyses of these pitch-phenomena and a conscientious description of their attitudinal messages and the discourse contexts in which they are found. The similarities and differences between falling and rising edge tones and Chao's falling and rising "successive tonal additions" are also discussed in detail.

国语降调“边调”:重开元仁超“连续加调”的讨论

摘要:自从YR Chao在20世纪初(1933年,1968年)首次讨论以来,他称之为“连续音调相加”的现象一直备受争议。赵说,这种语调现象表达了不同的情绪和态度,表现为上升和下降、非词汇、音高运动添加到发声末音节的词汇轮廓中。由于当时缺乏技术手段,赵超无法为他的说法提供任何工具证据。自 2004 年以来,作者观察到了无数让人联想到赵的“连续音调添加”的下降和上升音调现象,他指的是“话语最终边缘音调”(Ju wei jiayin句尾加音)(Mueller-Liu 2004, 2006, 2008). 扩展这些早期的出版物并包含新的,迄今为止未发表的数据,这篇论文详细描述了作者的发现,包括对这些音高现象的声学分析,以及对它们的态度信息和发现它们的话语上下文的认真描述。还详细讨论了下降沿和上升沿音与赵的下降和上升“连续音调相加”之间的异同。
