| Outline of Research at the Start |
The goal of this project is to develop unified analyses of word prominence in Japanese and Korean dialects within an analytical framework that combines ideas from theoretical phonology and morphology with insights from the Japanese and Korean schools of accent and tone.
|
| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
This year, I worked on developing a new grid-based approach to pitch accent, in which accent, pitch, metrical structure, and sonority are represented in a unified way. I applied this approach to the analysis of several Japanese and Korean dialects, as well as Turkish. The approach is well-suited to analyzing both pitch and stress accent, and thus bridges the gap between the two types of accent, an issue relevant to both theoretical phonology and phonological typology.

Current Status of Research Progress
2: Research has progressed on the whole more than it was originally planned.
Reason
I developed a new theoretical model for analyzing accent systems, which can serve as the foundation for a new theory and typology of accent. I have already applied the model to analyze several different accent systems found in Japanese, Korean, and Turkish.
|
| Strategy for Future Research Activity |
The next step is to apply the model to a broader range of Japanese and Korean dialects, and, if possible, to other languages that have been analyzed as pitch-accent systems. Based on this expanded dataset, the analyses I have already developed may require slight revisions or further elaboration. Another line of work involves presenting my analyses at additional conferences and writing up the results for publication.
