MENDOZA VAZQUEZ, Érika. INTERROGATIVE INTONATIONAL PATTERNS IN MORELIA, MICHOACÁN SPANISH. Anu. let. lingüíst. filol. [online]. 2019, vol.7, n.1, pp.157-198. Epub 06-Dic-2021. ISSN 2448-8224. https://doi.org/10.19130/iifl.adel.7.1.2019.1532.
This paper presents a description of the nuclear and prenuclear configurations of the interrogative intonation in Morelia, Michoacán Spanish. The description considers yes/no and wh- interrogatives with subtypes: i) information-seeking (neutral), ii) confirmatory and iii) imperatives. The data from discourse completion tasks show the realization of the nuclear accent L+H* in yes-no questions neutral and confirmatory interrogatives. In addition, the alignment of the final boundary tone H% is observed for the three types of interrogatives. These features are distinguished from the nuclear pitch accent L* and the complex boundary tone LH%, documented in yes-no questions neutral and invitations in the varieties of Guadalajara (Orozco, 2017) and Mexico City (De la Mota et al., 2010).
