摘要
对大型语料库进行韵律标注现已经成为一种语言研究和言语工程中广为使用的研究手段。ToBI(Tones and Break Indices)是目前国际上较为流行的韵律标注体系。本文结合国内外相关研究和标注实践介绍了该体系,分析了其优势和局限,明确了运用该体系的一些技术细节,包括容易混淆的音调的辨析,标注注意事项和细则,以及非流利的标注等。ToBI提供了一个韵律标注的统一可比的框架,因此,二语韵律标注最好以ToBI为标注规范。当然,该体系仍须进一步完善以适应二语韵律标注的需要。
Prosodic labeling of large corpora has now become a popular research tool in linguistic research and speech technology. ToBI (Tones and Break Indices) is currently a widely-used prosodic labeling system. It poses itself as a uniform and comparable framework for L2 prosodic labeling, although it still leaves room for improvement with respect to its capacity to cope with the complexity of L2 prosodic labeling. This paper provides an overview and analysis of ToBI, including its advantages and limitations as well as its applications in prosodic labeling practice.
