South Kyungsang Korean is spoken in the southeastern part of Korea.
This book presents the phonetic realization of tonal contrasts,
based on F0 (fundamental frequency) production and perception
experiments. It reports that there are three distinct tone classes
in monosyllabic roots, and they are different in F0 height,
syllable duration, and the timing of F0 peak and fall both in
unsuffixed words and in suffixed words. It has been suggested,
based on this acoustic evidence, that South Kyungsang Korean has
three different tone contrasts in monosyllabic roots, and that the
different tone alternation patterns of these three tone classes in
suffixed words are the reflection of the phonetic implementation of
each tone target.This work provides not only new basic facts of
South Kyungsang Korean tonology, but also another way of
understanding tone targets and tone alternation patterns. While
clarifying the complications in a particular language, the findings
in this work also contribute to debated topics of the relationship
between phonetics and phonology, and the perception of tonal
contrasts.
