conv02_173_down.wav : 2 places: between "go" and "down" and between "down" and "you" ANS (initial): ¥ We had 3 initial views (before discussion among the 3 of us): 1. 3m? on "go", 1m on "down" (but very uncertain): now 1m or 3- on both (if enough length) 2. "go" 3m, 3- and "down" 3m? 3. 3m? on both (but now thinks 1m on both) Discussion: ¥"go" w/pitch accent, ending on rise, "down" starts with sharp fall, which fits with next thought ¥could be delayed peak without w syllable in between RESPONDENT B: yes RESPONDENT A #1: I think so. ANS (initial) ¥could be an H- on "go" RESPONDENT A #1: (no) ANS (initial) ¥1m: tonal 3 that's too short RESPONDENT A #1: (agree. How about 2?) ANS (initial) ¥both are fairly long, but could be from monosyll pitch accent RESPONDENT B: yes ANS (initial) ¥both are long in the middle ¥"go" has long /o/ without rounding for /w/ offglide: co-articulation w/ following /d/? Or dialect difference? ¥"down" is strongly co-art w/ following "you", has no nasal murmur ¥coarticulation across boundaries: way to make grouping across boundary? RESPONDENT A: Strong coarticulation between ÔdownÕ and ÔyouÕ. In this case, the break index would be Ô0Õ. I could label an ip break after ÔyouÕ with L- phrase accent & BI 3. ANS (initial) ¥is this an example of RESPONDENT A's point that when you have a pitch accent on a final syll, it's hard to tell whether there is additional boundary-related tone and lengthening RESPONDENT B: Yes, definitely a good example! RESPONDENT A: yes, if the ip boundary is after ÔdownÕ. ANS (initial) ¥this example may have been used for utt-o-month: check for group labels RESPONDENT B: we didnÕt check with our labeling of this file from this summer, but hereÕs what we hear: ÒgoÓ has a L+H* pitch accent, ÒdownÓ has !H* followed by H- phrase accent and level 3 break. ÒyouÓ is a floater that attaches left and marks kind of a second end to that ip. There is a reset on ÒslopeÓ, which explains the high peak at the end of that contour. ANS #2: Would the break between ÒdownÓ and ÒyouÓ be a candidate for 1m? We donÕt hear a 3 after ÒyouÓ (it seems too short). Possible floater on ÒyouÓ?
