Syntactic Correlations of Prosodic Phrase in Broadcasting News Speech

The interrelation between prosody and syntax becomes more and more important in speech processing. This paper is intended to analyze the syntactic correlations of prosodic phrase in broadcasting news speech. The research results in the followings: Firstly, the C-PP, which there is a stable prosodic pattern of pitch contour within its rhythmic chunking, has a flexible syntactic structure and stable semantic expression. Secondly, we find that the syntactic structure is more complex than the prosodic structure, and some conjunction and particle more likely attached to the end of left structure or the beginning of right one and form a prosodic word. If it has just four lexical words including the conjunction or particle they form a prosodic word by itself. That is to say, it has very great flexibility in prosodic structures for conjunctions and particles.
