Abstract
OMProDat is an open multilingual prosodic database, which aims to collect, archive and distribute recordings and annotations of directly comparable data from different languages representing different prosodic typological characteristics. OMProDat contains recordings of 40 five-sentence passages read by 5 male and 5 female speakers of each language. Currently the database contains recordings for five languages: English, French, Mandarin Chinese, Cantonese and Korean. In this study, the generation of German database is introduced, and a prosodic comparison of these six languages is described. 18 melodic metrics were automatically extracted from each language, and can discriminate these six languages with an accuracy rate of 61.88%. Moreover, the dynamic melodic characteristics of the dialect in the German database can also be illustrated with these melodic metrics.
