Vallduví, Enric and Elisabet Engdahl. Furthermore, there is cross-linguistic variation in the range of syntactic functions that can be relativized. Although no systematic relation holds between gesture types and gesture functions, the representational function is usually performed by types such as iconics, deictics, and some metaphorics. The second coder is also a specialist of the field. Muller, Claude. Transcription conventions are provided in the Appendix at the end of the paper), Traditional grammar does not detail in great length the syntactic link between adverbial clauses a, Adverbial clauses are seen as exterior to the frame built by “main” clauses, and are related to the clause they modify through a connector indicating their adverbial status (Gosselin 1990). “Propositions relatives, identification et ambiguïté.”. 13The literature generally agrees on the fact that appositive relative clauses show several characteristics that are typically associated with non-subordinate clauses (Krifka 2007)6. “Adverbial Clauses.” In Language Typology and Syntactic Description: Complex Constructions. Throughout a vocal paragraph, pitch height naturally declines in a progressive manner. Wallace, Stephen. . “Cadrer ou centrer son discours? ’s reviewers for their valuable comments and suggestions on a previous version of this paper. Amsterdam: John Benjamins, 1999. Two semantic types are distinguished when describing dependency relations (van Rijn 2017). However, we are not aware of any work on subordination in MDA other than the study described in the present paper. Positioned at the centre of the continuum, they provide comprehensive messages, both concerned with referential elaboration and with textual sequential organisation, distributing the propositional content in homogeneous blocks. However, the lexical content of appositive relative clauses mainly marks an evaluative stance from the speaker, which does not represent critical information in the referential and/or sequential development of discourse. Christchurch, NZ: CSLI Publications (2004), 391–397. Thompson, Sandra A. “The Difference between English Restrictive and Nonrestrictive Relative Clauses.” Journal of Linguistics 26–1 (1990): 57–77. Well-known examples of modifiers are relative clauses and adverbial clauses (van Rijn 2017). Restrictive relative clauses are the only forms to present both salience and relevance. Fleischman, Suzanne. Gestural features tested in Restrictive Relative Clauses. focalisation cues at several levels as well as contributions which are more decisive to the construction of referential meaning and to the realisation of sequential discourse purposes than their co-text. While high transitivity and dynamicity in the nuclear components denote the foreground (Longacre 1996), nominality and identification show an inferior semantic weight (, . 2009, Bigi 2012, Boersma and Weenink 2013) now facilitates an account of subordinate constructions as multimodal phenomena. The paper discusses subordinate clauses in English, specifically, finite and non-finite nominal clauses and finite and non-finite adnominal relative clauses. A subordinate clause or dependent clause is a clause that can’t exist as a sentence on its own. However, one of their most distinct tendencies concerns their capacity to have extendable interpretative and textual scopes; a majority of them predicate information that remains relevant for the interpretation of two or more tone-units: opens a discourse frame as well as a distinct substructure, developing a narrative-like description of air turbulence. The superior pole of subordination within the gradation between nucleus and periphery is parataxis, where the verbal categories of aspect, tense, and mood are retained. Swerts and Krahmer’s studies (2005; 2008) are also multimodal, investigating audiovisual prosody. Van den Broeck (1973) replaces the binary distinction with an eight-point scale, going from total “restriction” to total “non-restriction”. Prosody mostly indexes background information while gesture signals local salience for this type of Sc. “Adverbial Clauses.”. 37Head gestures, particularly head beats (i.e. Such a classification is particularly relevant to “sentential” relative clauses, in which the appositive modifies the whole proposition as an antecedent. On the contrary, main clauses should feature process verbs and express dynamicity. The informational value of adverbial clauses then resides in their propensity to evolve in status, going from episodic to global relevance. “Figure and Ground: The Interrelationships of Linguistic Categories.” In P. J. Hopper (ed. Jackendoff, Ray. More specifically, the differentiation between restrictive relative clauses and appositive relatives on syntactic grounds is problematic (Borsley 1992, Arnold & Borsley 2008). Chicago, IL: University of Chicago Press, 2005. Toulouse: Presses Universitaires du Mirail, 2003. vocal activity (laughs, swallowing, sighs), One line of transcription corresponds to one tone-unit. This subjective comment can add an event which participates to the succession of events in the text. 1: Intonation curve of example (10) in Praat, showing a rising-falling contour in Sc. Essays in honor of Adam Kendon. Gestural features tested in Adverbial Clauses14, number of hand gestures with a representational function out of a total of 52 in sequences (L+ Sc +R), number of hand gestures with an organisational function out of a total of 117 in sequences (L+ Sc +R), high hand gestures out of a total of 30 in sequences (L+ Sc +R), low hand gestures out of a total of 77 in sequences (L+ Sc +R), held hand gestures out of a total of 21 in sequences (L+ Sc +R), hand beats out of a total of 20 in sequences (L+ Sc +R), head beats out of a total of 37 in sequences (L+ Sc +R), gaze units away out of a total number of 96 in sequences (L+ Sc +R), eyebrow rises out of a total of 17 in sequences (L+ Sc +R). The content in the relative clause is deemed more objective than subjective, as evidence of an effort from the speaker to avoid any commentary function (. as part of the common ground; Muller 2008). From the point of view of utterer-based grammar, they are seen as performing secondary specification on predications. 2017. . The finite verb is most central to what constitutes a clause. They show the highest distribution of emphatic (rise-fall) contours on nuclear syllables with 15% of occurrences produced with such a contour. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1985. . (9) Held gestures and asymmetrical configurations are expected, with small organisational hand movements produced in the speaker’s periphery or low coordinates (Streeck 2009), while these features are not associated with main clauses, and larger hand movements are linked with focalisation. Reinhart, Tanya. 66While not showing any rhythmic difference, this syntactic type features the highest distribution of high rising contours among their embedding sequence (L: F(39,39) = 2.08, p < .02; R: F(39,39) = 1.71, p < .05), with 25% of adverbial clauses featuring such a contour. Loock, Rudy. The total column gives the number of features present in sequences (L+Sc+R) that contain a Restrictive Relative Clause. . 90The increase in representational gestures is shown in Figure 4, that illustrates example (15), in which L and Sc provide a short abstract to Rhianna’s narrative: i tried [(a) driving once HEAD BEAT] in her car, when we were on a # [(b) little road HEAD BEAT in the countryside] #, [(c) and hem (swallows) she said HEAD BEAT turn left #]. Several studies do not subscribe to the traditional opposition between restrictive relative and appositive clauses. Lascarides, Alex and Matthew Stone. ), Information Sharing: Reference and Presupposition in Language Generation and Interpretation. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1985. ), Coherence and Grounding in Discourse. En montrant que les constructions sous étude n’expriment pas les mêmes types de foci selon la façon dont les locuteurs utilisent les modalités prosodique et gestuelle pour exprimer plus ou moins de proéminence, les résultats suggèrent que la création de focalisation s’appuie majoritairement sur des indices de nature gestuelle. 88While sharing a single prosodic contour with L, Sc’s final syllable is higher than the initial one (284 Hz vs. 219 Hz) and does not match R’s beginning, which is downstepped (Intsint “D” value). Introducteurs de cadres et centrage.” Verbum 22–1 (2000): 59–78. Tom’s argumentation remains coherent: what bothers him is being misled on a product’s origins. The interpretational range of initial and final adverbial clauses has been investigated by numerou, Whether initial or final, localising frames raise the question of their more or less rigid relation to the verb of the clause they are grouped with, . Repeated gestures throughout an interaction create coherence in terms of discourse (Lascarides and Stone 2009). Just as other predicates, they are not included in choices occurring at a lower level, such as the choice of their arguments. Amsterdam: John Benjamins, 2008. Table 2 features the prosodic cues we have included in the analysis and their distribution in appositive relative clauses. Verbal features tested in Restrictive Relative Clauses. . INTSINT Same values out of a total of 70 in sequences (L+, Adverbial clauses mostly stand out through their visual strategies, featuring a densely coded content with the highest production of hand gestures (1.5 hand gesture per segment in average). Streeck, Jürgen. Hirschberg, Julia and Barbara Grosz. “Modal Density and Modal Configurations: Multimodal Actions.” In C. Jewitt (ed. However, Sc does not elaborate upon her mother’s advice: this segment is a comment going back on L’s new information (“get my license”). Table 7 features the verbal parameters taken into account and their distribution in restrictive relative clauses. . Clauses that are introduced by a subordinating conjunction are called subordinate clauses.A subordinate clause cannot stand alone. Table 6 shows the distribution of the gestural cues for foreground in adverbial clauses. Attention is devoted to the various syntactic features of these clauses, as well as to their different functions. Chafe (1976) first describes adverbial clauses as establishing “a spatial, temporal, or individual framework within which the main predication holds”. She also raises her eyebrows in this design (Figure 2b’ is a close-up), taking a strong modal stance on L’s arguments, and marking, as a contrastive move. The exchange space they create can mainly be seen with their gestures, reflecting pragmatic preoccupations above the representational level. Peterson, Peter. Each dialogue had a single MPEG-4 file, juxtaposing the images of both cameras which filmed each participant. New York: John Wiley, 1982. Lyttle 1974) or prosodic input (e.g. Other studies (e.g. While iconic and other representational gestures are used before Sc, creating foci at the objectal, propositional level, the gestures used in Sc do not directly represent referents. Cambridge, UK: Cambridge University Press, 1997. “Descriptive Categories for the Additive Analysis of Intonation in Conversation.” Journal of Pragmatics 11–6 (1987): 777–791. Iconics are “images of concrete entities and/or action”, whereas metaphorics are "images of the abstract" involving a metaphoric use of form and/or space (McNeill 2005: 39). In example (2) below, the adverbial clause is in initial position. This is significantly more than appositive relative clauses (, < .05) and restrictive relative clauses (. A Grammar of English on Mathematical Principles. Setting up a functional distinction between several types of appositive relative clauses, Melis (2008) evokes comment appositive clauses (as in example (5) above) and continuation appositive clauses (as in example (6) above). 1999; Huddleston and Pullum 2002: 1048). In each of the following sentences, we have bracketed a subordinate clause. This antecedent is redefined in Sc with the creation of a property attributed to “the cells”. 4 The interpretational range of initial and final adverbial clauses has been investigated by numerous studies in the discourse literature. 112While subordinate constructions are not significantly emphasised through their syntactic realisation or lexical coding, the increase in the referential value of the gestural components suggests a shift towards a visual manipulation of representational features, and a global, sequential valorisation of information, through held gestures and repetitions throughout tone-units. Their succession in co-occurrence with the verb and its object complement highlights the predicate and the process it describes, pragmatically indexing the most relevant informational content in the sequence. Gesture: Visible Action as Utterance. Muller 2006; Krifka 2007) mark out the limits of this distinction and state that the difference lies in the use of co-reference. was used for the automatic annotation of the F0 target points in the signal. Van den Broeck (1973) replaces the binary distinction with an eight-point scale, going from total “restriction” to total “non-restriction”. ), Tense-aspect. (2) Subordinate clauses should represent old information (Hopper 1979) as opposed to main clauses presenting new information, and (3) provide little contribution to their embedding sequence (Longacre 1996), while main clauses are assumed to move the discourse forward with segments directly fulfilling the sequential discourse purpose. The second coder is also a specialist of the field. In order to establish reliability of the gesture type classification, a second coder judged 20% of the data that had been classified by the original coder. Zoe’s laugh punctuates. London, UK: Routledge, 2009. They give durative and descriptive information about the way the discourse and the interaction are organised. Embedded clauses can be categorized according to their syntactic function in terms of predicate-argument structures. Prosodic Systems and Intonation in English. Matthiessen, Christian and Sandra A. Thompson. Also known as a dependent clause. Helm (ed). Givón (1987: 176) contradicts the notion of any fixed grammatical correlate to the foreground/background distinction in discourse. “The Discourse Functions of Sentence-initial Adverbials: Studies in Comprehension.”. “De la topicalité des adverbiaux détachés en tête de phrase.” Travaux de Linguistique 47–2 (2003): 11–49. Paris: PUF, 1994. Thompson (2002) adds that an initial adverbial clause raises a “problem” regarding the expectancies fulfilled by previous discourse segments, and that the following utterances bring solutions. Notably, more than one type of relative clause can be present in one language. The corpus used for this study, ENVID (Lelandais and Ferré 2016), is a collection of dialogues in British English. Ensure that subordinate clauses only complement a sentence’s main clause … Di Luzio (eds). provides a concession to one of Tom’s main arguments. How Are Three Syntactic Types of Subordinate Clauses Different in Terms of Informational Weight? Thompson, Sandra A. and Robert E. Longacre. Sc constructs a landmark for what follows, embedding R. 89To sum up, while the verbal features of adverbial clauses suggest a two-fold role both in referential elaboration and textual elaboration, their prosody signals background information, with a single focalisation cue. The total column gives the number of features present in sequences (L+. The last column gives the percentage of restrictive relative clauses showing each feature out of the total 40. which gives the number of gestures showing each feature per segment) and the last column (which gives the percentage of the gestures in restrictive relative clauses out of the total of gestures in the sequence – L+Sc+R). Syntax: Subordinate Clauses. According to Reinhart (1984), only main clauses can belong to the foreground since subordinate clauses are considered to be presupposed. Cotte, Pierre. Five dialogues were selected, making up a total of 2 hours and 10 minutes of interaction. Aspect and Syntactic Structure. L and Sc provide a coherent informational unit, showing no hierarchy. Completing the identification of the item “test”, Sc delays the verbal sequential focus, set in R with a presentative structure and the discourse marker “actually”. 1 Multimodal Discourse Analysis (MDA) is a diversified and growing field of research that includes works in a wide array of disciplines such as communication studies, social semiotics or (psycho or socio-) linguistics. Cassell, Justine and David McNeill. We are particularly interested in values which indicate a significant pitch reset (Top, Bottom), or a significant change in pitch key (Upstep —change towards a higher pitch range, Downstep— towards a lower pitch range). In M. Seyfeddinipur and M. Gullberg (eds.). Verbal features tested in Adverbial Clauses.12, cataphora in previous tone-unit + anaphora in following tone-unit. We use “prominence” as a synonym for “salience”. 28While very little work has been conducted on subordinate constructions from a multimodal perspective, a large body of research has detailed prosodic subordination (e.g. She positions herself as a participant in her narrative, contrary to L in which she does not describe any event but gives information about them as an utterer. They involved British people aged 20 to 23 who were friends or had already met. 91In (15) Rhianna realises an emphatic metaphoric gesture in the low periphery (a) in L, insisting on the exceptional character of the situation. However, the literature shows little consensus in weighing their informational input: while the information conveyed in subordinate structures is seen as serving grounding functions in discourse (Fleischman 1985), Cristofaro (2003) and Langacker (2008) signal that semantic and/or illocutionary subordination need not align with syntactic subordination, and that the notion of subordination is best understood in terms of dynamic conceptualisation. 94Restrictive relative clauses present the highest distribution of aspectual marks and modal auxiliaries which denote radical modality, emphasising the subject-predicate relation as in (16): 95Using a de-actualised form of “can” which evokes an elapsed possibility, Michelle asserts a strong relation between “she” and the predicate, and reduces the referential scope of “everything”. Langacker, Ronald W. “Complex sentences.” In Cognitive Grammar. b. Lyttle, Eldon G. A Grammar of Subordinate Structures in English. 31Likewise, while emphasis is coded with a rising-falling contour on the nuclear syllable (Selting 1987), flat or falling-rising contours are used to encode background information (Ward and Hirschberg 1984). Frequency counts for referential anaphoric items and for cataphoric items were also made in L, SC, and R, as they mark out cognitive centring (Grosz et al. Figure 1: Intonation curve of example (10) in Praat, showing a rising-falling contour in Sc.18. Subject clause: It is obvious that we need more equipment. 58If the constructions belong to the discourse background, they should in majority (1) be syntactically governed, with state or copular verbs (Hopper and Thompson 1980). From the perspective of discourse, adverbial clauses are not significantly different from the two other syntactic types either. Berkeley, CA: eLanguage, 1984. Amsterdam and Philadelphia, PA: John Benjamins, 1988. Each participant had a lavalier microphone, which provided two separate audio tracks. A change in gaze direction towards the co-speaker within a turn is often linked to focalisation, functioning as an appeal to the co-speaker (Holler. Other studies (, Muller 2006; Krifka 2007) mark out the limits of this distinction and state that the difference lies in the use of co-reference. > .05) and the other syntactic types (adverbials: < .002). Prosodic features tested in Adverbial Clauses.13, INTSINT Same values out of a total of 70 in sequences (L+ Sc +R). Figure 4: Metaphoric gesture in L in sequence (15), followed by a large iconic gesture in Sc. Focalisation participates in the elaboration of the foreground. (5) Subordinate clauses are expected to show flat or falling-rising contours (Ward and Hirschberg 1985) as opposed to definitive falling contours advancing the conversational agenda or to rising-falling contours associated with focalisation, and (6) should not cause any important change in rhythm, featuring few pauses (Local 1992), as some silent pauses also participate in focalisation. Its aim was to establish whether the affirmation that subordinate clauses constitute background information as opposed to their host main clauses holds true. Each hand gesture was also assigned a function regarding co-occurring speech. Unlike “which” which links the referent it modifies with the contextual situation (Melis 2008), “that” as a relative pronoun is object-oriented (defining a property of the object) and is neutral in terms of utterer-based modality. Eyebrow movement, especially rises, is linked to prosody, particularly to focalisation and emphasis (Granström and House 2005). Examples will be provided in relation with these results in the Discussion section that follows. Talmy, Leonard. In. According to Dancygier and Sweetser (2000), “when” clauses engage the speaker to the reality of the mental space built in the “main” clause, even when this reality has already occurred or has not occurred yet. They are more concerned with the organisational level of discourse, mainly giving information about the structure of these referents, and about the expression of a stance. 82Appositive relative clauses do not bring a substantial propositional input, as shown by their low transitivity and their capacity to insert modality in the discourse. Alex then looks at the air hostesses). It has also been proposed that there may be a continuum of subordination even within one clause type (Tao and McCarthy 2001), and that certain subordinate clause types may not actually be best described as such, especially adverbials and appositive relative clauses (Depraetere 1996, Thompson 2002). Their nuclear contours are then very clear and distinct from their environment (L: F(39,39) = 1.89, p < .05; R: F(39,39) = 1.94, p < .05). . The analysis evaluates the informational weight of subordinate constructions (background vs. foreground information). Sharing the same tone-unit as L and containing the prosodic nucleus. A Basic Introduction. Two audio files corresponding to each microphone were created in a WAV format, so as to facilitate the analysis of overlapping speech. Index. In (6) below, the process
is consecutive to . Their capacity to form distinct illocutionary acts (, Peterson 2004; Holler 2005) is one of such properties. Streeck, Jürgen. 110Finally, restrictive relative clauses (RRCs) gather five focalisation cues. ), “Subordination” versus “Coordination” in Sentence and Text. The criterion for the identification of these levels in discourse structure is a potential question from the co-speaker. verbless clause: Whatever their faults, they are not hypocrites. Emonds (1979) and Cotte (2008) describe restrictive relative clauses as “attached” relative structures compared to appositive relative clauses, which are “detached”, iconically marking out the distance of the object. According to Blühdorn (2008), adverbial connectives link portions of speech neither by government and embedding nor by linear sequence. Ferré, Gaëlle. Aims The aim of this book is to provide a detailed description of the structure and use of non-finite clauses in English. “Can Speaker Gaze Modulate Syntactic Structuring and Thematic Role Assignment during Spoken Sentence Comprehension?”, Krifka, Manfred. is marked as textually equal to its surroundings. Prosodic features tested in Restrictive Relative Clauses. . Quirk et al. Harris, Zelig. However, they all support the fact that several broad types of relative clauses can be distinguished (Kleiber 1980). “Language, Linear Precedence and Parentheticals.” In P. Collins & D. Lee (eds. Rhianna resumes her main argumentation line in R with a much more categorical expression: while bent in assent during Sc, she holds herself upright in R and accompanies the next tone-units with a continuous negative head shake. In order to establish reliability of the gesture function classification, a second coder judged 20% of the data that had been classified by the original coder. The highest distribution of emphatic (rise-fall) contours in appositive relative clauses is shown in example (10) represented in Figure 1 below. Matthiessen, Christian and Sandra A. Thompson. “The syntax of Appositive Relativization.”, Dohen, Marion and Hélène Lœvenbruck. Cohesion in English. significant changes in the F0 curve either regarding the speaker’s pitch range (Top, Bottom) or regarding the neighbouring tones or sequences of tones (Upstep, Downstep, Same, Low, High). A noun serves as the subject of the verb in a sentence or it serves as the complement of the verb in a sentence ; so does a noun clause and even a nominal or noun phrase . Retrieved 16 September 2014 from http://revel.unice.fr/cycnos/index.html?id=1693. Seattle: University of Washington Press, 1967. . Boersma, Paul and David Weenink. In this type of Sc, while prosody generally encodes background information, gesture mainly signals prominence. 53Hand gestures were coded considering their link with co-occurring speech and their relationship to lexical affiliates (Kipp et al. New York: Cambridge University Press, 1996. Just as other predicates, they are not included in choices occurring at a lower level, such as the choice of their arguments. . The timing of the video stills is indicated under each image. Background information can also be uttered with an increased speech rate whereas focalisation can be achieved through a significant decrease in rhythm (Wichmann 2000). n (1987: 176) contradicts the notion of any fixed grammatical correlate to the foreground/background distinction in discourse. Table 6. Amsterdam and Philadelphia, PA: John Benjamins, 2011. “Discourse Functions of Tense-aspect Distinctions in Narrative: Toward a Theory of Grounding.” Linguistics 23 (1985): 851–882. The second coder is also a specialist of the field. Van Valin, Robert D. and Randy LaPolla. Blog. provide a short abstract to Rhianna’s narrative: Metaphoric gesture in L in sequence (15), followed by a large iconic gesture in, In (15) Rhianna realises an emphatic metaphoric gesture in the low periphery (a) in L, insisting on the exceptional character of the situation. While high transitivity and dynamicity in the nuclear components denote the foreground (Longacre 1996), nominality and identification show an inferior semantic weight (Givón 1987). Each gesture phrase was considered to start at the onset of the gesture and to end at the return to rest position if there was one. Thompson, Sandra A. “Relatives et types de qualification.” Cycnos 17 (2008). In (7) below, the sequence could be glossed as “it’s only one shop for the whole thing now, and that is quite bad”. (1985) regard appositive relative clauses as semantically equivalent to coordinate clauses. Just like larger syntactic units, individual syntactic constituents are also characterised by their own internal structure. Couper-Kuhlen 1986), the development of analytical tools and schemes (e.g. In line with this, the present article discusses subordination in spontaneous speech, more specifically the sequences containing subordinate constructions that operate at the syntactic level of modification (, As traditionally described in syntax and discourse analysis, modifiers in discourse subordination refer to elements specifying or elaborating upon some primary features, often described as additions associated to another propositional content in the host or embedding structure (Biber.
