摘要
一直以来,国内外学界大都依据少数样例或小规模语料主观推断话语标记的语用功能,忽视了韵律对语用功能的判别作用。本文基于大规模自然口语语料库,使用Praat语音软件和R语言统计分析“你知道”的韵律与语用数据,并构建韵律-功能分类模型。统计分析发现,“你知道”的各韵律特征之间显著相关,韵律特征与语用功能密切互动,韵律-功能条件决策树模型能够有效判别语用功能。这些发现证明韵律特征的表现形式会受到语用功能的外在制约,韵律特征可以作为语用功能分类的客观依据。
The academic circles at home and abroad have been inferring the pragmatic functions of discourse markers based on a few examples or small-scale corpora,ignoring the role of prosody in distinguishing pragmatic functions.Based on a large-scale corpus of natural speech,this study uses Praat speech software and R statistical analysis to describe the prosodic and pragmatic information of“ni zhidao”and test the prosody-pragmatics correlation.It has been found that the prosodic variables of“ni zhidao”are significantly correlated,that prosodic features are intrinsically bound up with pragmatics functions,and that the prosody-pragmatics conditional inference tree is effective in classifying pragmatic functions.These findings show that the actual performance of prosodic parameters is conditioned and motivated by pragmatic functions,and prosody can be evidence for pragmatic categorization.Prosody objectively reveals the roles of constructing context and manifesting meta-pragmatic awareness played by discourse markers.The combination of form-based study and function-based study with the corpus and the intellectual enquiry proving each other is not only feasible and effective but also inevitable in the prospective discourse marker research and even the whole language research.
