Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study aimed at finding out typical intonation shapes of German. 20 native speakers of German read texts from a German textbook and their reading was recorded. 5 sentences were chosen for pitch analysis and many of the pitch contours proved to be similar. The numbers of the speakers who read in a similar intonation were: 13 for sentence (1), 10 for the first half of sentence (2) (the second half was read by 5 speakers in a similar, and also by 5 speakers in another similar intonation), 14 for sentence (3), 12 for (4), and 12 for the beginning, 8 for the middle, and 18 for the end of (5). In all sentences, a falling accent was found in the nuclear position, and in prenuclear positions, a rising accent appeared frequently. The hypothesis seems now to be justifiable that similar intonation shapes are realized in the utterances of native speakers of German.
In contrast, only 3 of 12 japanese speakers of German showed a similar intonation for sentence (1).
