Abstract

In this article, we describe and analyse the phonetic alignment of pitch accents in Vitoria Spanish, and we compare it to other dialects of Spanish that have been previously analysed: Madrid Spanish and Lekeitio Spanish. In the variety of Vitoria, accent is intonationally realized as a pitch rise. In prenuclear accents, peaks are aligned in the posttonic syllable, whereas in nuclear accents, peaks are aligned within the tonic syllable. For valleys, these are aligned before the onset of the stressed syllable in all positions.
