EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF THE PHONOLOGICAL IMAGE OF THE FOCUS (MENTAL ACCENT) IN THE KAZAKH LANGUAGE
Abstract
Focus is one of the functions of intonation, that is the information highlighted in the sentences. In many languages, the acoustic manifestation of focus is accompanied by a scent of pitch, lengthening of the duration and increase of energy.This paper studies acoustic manifesta-tion of pitch of different focuses in Kazak declarative sentences. The study finds that acoustic manifestation of pitch of different focuses is that prosodic words extend the pitch range through variation of top line and bottom line on the location of the focus. Behind the focus, top line of pitch declines sharply, causing obvious compression of pitch range, which makes the focus more prominent.
