경상도방언의 어절축약 현상과 억양 = A Study of the Correlations between Intonation and Word-Contraction in Gyungsang-do Dialects

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study aims to investigate patterns of intonation and its characteristics in Gyungsang-do dialects, especially the Cheongdo region in Gyungsangbook-do and Busan. I have also attempted to investigate the correlations between intonation and word contraction in these dialects, between tone and intonation, and between intonation and other linguistic cues. This study of mine is carried out in terms of an acoustic technique though experimental. The conclusion that I have
reached in this study is as follows :
First, The intonation pattern of a terminal sentence of the question sentence is two types, falling and raising patterns of intonation. These intonation types appear as differences in sub-dialects.
Second, The linguistic factors influenced by the intonation pattern are tone, word contraction, and non-phonological factors; the tone is the most important factor among these factors. Third, an intonation type of Gyungsang-do dialects by the influence of word contraction is as following conditions : 1)a deleting syllable which was repeated by the identical pitch, 2)a deleting syllable of low frequency which was realized together with high frequency syllable, 3)a deleting a intermediate or coda syllable which is located at word.
