This paper presents a preliminary study on the syntax/prosody interface in spoken Brazilian Portuguese and Italian, within the Language into Act Theory theoretical framework (L-AcT, Cresti 2000). According to this theory, spoken syntax has to be studied taking into consideration the way the speaker combines information along one or more information units, since each of them is understood as a syntactic/semantic island (Cresti 2014). Then, linearized syntax defines proper dependency relationships, performed within the same information unit, while patterned constructions, syntactic structures performed across more than one information unit, are to be analyzed considering the pragmatic functions of the information units involved (Cresti 2014). According to a non-discrete conception of speech rhythm (Barbosa 2000, 2006), BP can be defined as a more stress-timed language with respect to IT, and its tonal unit can host more phonological syllables than IT’s, for BP’s rhythm leads to strong re-syllabification phenomena. Based on data from the C-ORAL-BRASIL (Raso & Mello 2012) and Italian C-ORAL-ROM (Cresti & Moneglia 2005) spontaneous speech corpora, this paper aims at verifying if such prosodic features partake in the way the two languages display preference for linearized syntax or patterned constructions.

Neste artigo, apresenta-se uma análise das orações completivas na fala do inglês americano, tendo como base teórica a Language into Act Theory (L-AcT, CRESTI, 2000). A partir dessa teoria, a subordinação completiva é analisada em sua interface com a articulação informacional, levando em conta a organização pragmática da sintaxe da fala. Após efetuar o mapeamento das orações completivas explícitas no minicorpus de inglês americano extraído do Santa Barbara Corpus of Spoken American English (CAVALCANTE; RAMOS, 2016) e dos padrões informacionais associados a estas estruturas sintáticas, compararam-se os resultados com dados já levantados para o italiano e português brasileiro, nos respectivos minicorpora extraídos do C-ORAL-ROM (CRESTI; MONEGLIA, 2005) e C-ORAL-BRASIL (RASO; MELLO, 2012).

Illocution as a unit of reference for spontaneous speech

In this paper we propose a synchronic, corpus-based account of insubordination, through the analysis of adverbial clauses in Brazilian Portuguese spontaneous speech at the syntax/prosody interface. The segmentation of the speech flow through prosodic cues is crucial to analyse linguistic and, specifically, syntactic relations in spoken language. Besides, it is through prosody that illocutionary and informational values are conveyed in speech. Our claim is that insubordination can be studied without assuming the existence of a grammaticalization path or main clause ellipsis processes, given that through specific illocutionary prosodic profiles, syntactically dependent clauses are assigned pragmatic autonomy.
