Beschreibung
This book explores the various categories of speech variation and works to draw a line between linguistic and paralinguistic phenomenon of speech. Paralinguistic contrast is crucial to human speech but has proven to be one of the most difficult tasks in speech systems. In the quest for solutions to speech technology and sciences, this book narrows down the gap between speech technologists and phoneticians and emphasizes the imperative efforts required to accomplish the goal of paralinguistic control in speech technology applications and the acute need for a multidisciplinary categorization system. This interdisciplinary work on paralanguage will not only serve as a source of information but also a theoretical model for linguists, sociologists, psychologists, phoneticians and speech researchers.
Focuses the attention of the reader to vocal paralanguage as a critical input to identity, gender, age and other attributes Asserts why vocalizations and paralinguistic properties are useful in identifying the emotional state of the speaker and understanding the non-explicit meaning of one’s speech Provides a comprehensive multidirectional perspective on understanding the boundaries of language and its implications Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
