Abstract
Abstract This paper analyses and studies the melodic behavior of five female informants of Mexican origin or descent, three of them residents in the city of Los Angeles in the United States, and two in Mexico, one in Mexico City and the other in Puebla. There are two main objectives: firstly, to contribute to the prosodic description of Mexican Spanish on both sides of the political border between both countries (declarative statements and neutral absolute interrogatives), and secondly, to verify the continuity between the Mexican-American intonation of LA and that of MX Mexican. We followed the methodology developed by the research groups that make up Amper-Mexico and Amper-California Los Angeles, within the framework of the international AMPER project.
摘要本文分析和研究了五名墨西哥裔女性线人的旋律行为,其中三人居住在美国洛杉矶市,两人在墨西哥,一人在墨西哥城,另一人在普埃布拉。主要有两个目标:第一,有助于对墨西哥西班牙语在两国政治边界两侧的韵律描述(陈述性陈述和中立的绝对疑问句),第二,验证LA的墨西哥裔美国人语调与MX Mexican的墨西哥裔美国语调之间的连续性。我们遵循了由Amper Mexico和Amper California Los Angeles组成的研究小组在国际Amper项目框架内开发的方法。
