In this paper, we show that word order is not the only means to encode information structure in this language, but it is used in combination with sentence prosody. After a preliminary description of the use of prosodic phrasing and intonation for this purpose, we address the question of the interrelation between these two strategies. Based on experimental evidence, we investigate the interaction of focus with word order and prosody, and we conclude that some aspects of word order variation are pragmatically vacuous and can be accommodated in any context if they are realized with an appropriate prosodic structure, while other word order phenomena are quite restrictive and cannot be overridden through prosodic manipulations.}, language = {en} } @article{FeryArnhold2019, author = {F{\´e}ry, Caroline and Arnhold, Anja}, title = {Verum focus and negation}, series = {Of trees and birds.

The apparent lack of phonetic marking on SOF has raised much discussion oil the semantic theory Of focus (Partee 1999, Rooth 1992). Some researchers have reported the existence of phonetic marking of SOF in the postnuclear area (Rooth 1996, Beaver et al. 2007). In our experimental study with German sentences, we examined sentences both with prenuclear SOF and with postnuclear SOF, comparing them with their first occurrence focus (FOF) and non-focus counterparts. The results show that the phonetic prominence of focus (higher pitch/longer duration) is realized differently according to the type of focus as well as according to the position of the target expression. We account for these differences by considering several phonetic effects, those that are information-structure-related and those that are phonologically motivated.}, language = {en} } @article{FeryHartmann2005, author = {F{\´e}ry, Caroline and Hartmann, Katharina}, title = {The Focus and prosodic structure of German Gapping and right Node Raising}, year = {2005}, language = {en} } @article{Fery2007, author = {F{\´e}ry, Caroline}, title = {The fallacy of invariant phonological correlates of Information structural Notions}, isbn = {978-3-939469-88-9}, year = {2007}, language = {en} } @article{FeryTruckenbrodt2005, author = {F{\´e}ry, Caroline and Truckenbrodt, Hubert}, title = {Sisterhood and tonal scaling}, issn = {0039-3193}, year = {2005}, abstract = {This paper discusses central aspects of the effects of hierarchical structure on tonal scaling in intonation.

The results help us to decide between different models of German prosody. The absence of pitch height difference on the accent of the sentence speaks in favor of a relative model of prosody, in which accents are scaled relative to each other, and against models in which pitch accents are scaled in an absolute way. The results also speak for a model in which syntax, but not information structure, influences the prosodic phrasing. Finally, perception experiments show that the prosodic structure of sentences with a marked word order needs to be presented for grammaticality judgments.

Tense vowels are often in open syllables and lax vowels in closed ones. This generalization, which has been called loi de position in the literature, is often overridden by special vowel-consonant coocurrence restrictions obscuring the generalization. The paper shows first that the admission of semi-syllables in the phonology of French explains a large number of counterexamples. Many final closing consonants on the phonetic representation can be understood as onsets of following rhymeless syllables, opening in this way the last full syllable. Arguments coming from phonotactic regularities support this analysis. The second insight of the paper is that the Optimality Theory is a good framework to account for the intricate data bearing on the relationship between vowels and syllable structure.
