Research Abstract |
In our research, we performed a series of experiments in the production and perception of German modal particles. The results show that there are some specific features of prosody in each of the various meanings of the modal particles. It also became clear that the phonetic characteristics of the whole utterance including modal particles play an important role in the perception of the modal particle. According to our analysis of conversation data and interviews with German native speakers, there are further meanings, such as "surprise" and "confirmation," that have not been apparent in previous studies. In some utterances with different modal particles expressing a specific intention, such as "refutation," the common prosodic features were observed.
