COMPARATIVE PROSODIC STUDY OF EMISSIONS WITH THE MARKER “THEN” BETWEEN THE RIOPLATENSE AND VALENCIAN VARIETIES OF SPANISH

Abstract

The aim of this article is to deepen on the study of oral language from a phonetic phonological-perspective associated with the semantic-pragmatic aspect, applying the prosodic analysis (presence / absence of junctions and tonal readjustments in the marker limits, tonal prominences, duration of the connector and presence / absence of phonic reduction of then) in two corpora of data of different varieties from the Spanish: the Rioplatense and the Valencian one; both selected from PRESEEA_BA and PRESEEA_VAL, respectively. Both varieties are compared, as well as the phonic variations that are presented in the narrative vs. argumentative context and the selected semantic-pragmatic classification of the connector (continuous / consecutive).
