Prominencia melódica y temporal: el caso de la alternancia rítmica
Abstract
The goal of this paper is the analysis of syllabic alternation on the timing and tonal patterns of lexical and phonological words. Prominences of nonprimary stresses [+ strong] versus pre-stress syllables [+ weak] versus primary stresses [+ strong] are studied through acoustic measurements on different speech styles: read texts and sentences (Colombia, Panamá) and semi-spontaneous and casual discourses (Argentina, Venezuela). The results are not consistent with prosodic alternation: syllabic prominences of similar degree occur in adjacent positions. The findings agree with data reported elsewhere on Canary Islands and American Spanish.
