Research Abstract |
Prosody in interactive languages is important for language understanding or real-time communication. In this study, the function and the effect of prosody were analyzed for Japanese oral language and Japanese sign language with different modalities. The results of research were (1) the development of measurement method of prosody information, (2) showing the importance of prosody in real-time communication, (3) finding of similarities and differences between different languages with different modalities.
