    In this response paper, I argue that types of meanings in linguistic utterances which lie beyond propositional meaning can hardly be subsumed in only one category called implicational meaning. Many of these levels of meaning allow for restricted comparisons of their correspondence to levels of meaning in musical utterances

    Das Projekt dokumentiert Dialoge zwischen Sprechern aus mehrsprachigen Gemeinden in Lateinamerika. Um die Bearbeitung des Common Ground beobachten zu können, wurden kommunikative Spiele elizitiert, die in einer romanischen und einer anderen amerikanischen Sprache ausgeführt wurden. Das lexikalische Material wurde nach metrischen Kriterien ausgewählt. Unsere Elizitationstechniken, die in allen Sprachgemeinschaften die gleichen sind, stellen einen hohen Grad der Vergleichbarkeit zwischen den Sprachen sicher. Alle Gespräche wurden transkribiert und die nichtromanischen außerdem übersetzt und morphologisch glossiert. Auf diese Weise trägt das Projekt zu einer erhöhten Sichtbarkeit für wenig erforschte Sprachgemeinschaften bei.El proyecto documenta diálogos entre hablantes de comunidades multilingües de América Latina. Para poder observar el procesamiento del Common Ground, se produjeron juegos comunicativos, que fueron ejecutados en una lengua románica y otra lengua americana. El material léxico se seleccionó según criterios métricos. Nuestras técnicas de elicitación, replicadas en todas las comunidades, garantizan un alto grado de comparabilidad entre las diferentes lenguas. Todas las conversaciones fueron transcritas y las no románicas fueron traducidas y morfológicamente glosadas. De esta manera, el proyecto contribuye al incremento de la visibilidad de comunidades de habla poco investigadas.O projeto documenta diálogos entre falantes de comunidades multilíngues na América Latina.

To be able to observe the processing of the Common Ground, language games in a Romance language and an American language have been elicited. The lexical material used in these tasks has been selected according to metrical criteria. Our elicitation techniques, held constant across communities, ensure a high degree of comparability between the results obtained for the different languages. All conversations were transcribed, and for the American languages, translations and morphological glosses are also provided. In this way, the project contributes to increased visibility for under-researched speech communities

    Get PDF
    This book presents a collection of pioneering papers reflecting current methods in prosody research with a focus on Romance languages. The rapid expansion of the field of prosody research in the last decades has given rise to a proliferation of methods that has left little room for the critical assessment of these methods. The aim of this volume is to bridge this gap by embracing original contributions, in which experts in the field assess, reflect, and discuss different methods of data gathering and analysis. The book might thus be of interest to scholars and established researchers as well as to students and young academics who wish to explore the topic of prosody, an expanding and promising area of study
