Resumo: The present paper aims to analyze the role of prosody in the resolution of global ambiguity in sentences of the type NP1 - V - NP2 - Adverb of place - Adverb of intensity (very) - Attribute (The guitarist received the drummer in the room very drugged), in Brazilian Portuguese. We consider the hypothesis that prosodic cues, such as stress and pause, aid in the process of disambiguation, both in isolation and in conjunction. The experimental paradigm of the present study used an off-line method of linguistic processing through a questionnaire whose response options were presented on a Likert scale. The results presented revealed predominance of non-local apposition judgments in all analyzed conditions. However, the choice of assigning the adjective to the first nominal phrase increased, in a statistically significant way, in the conditions in which there was prosodic manipulation for that purpose, showing evidence for confirmation of our hypothesis.

We consider the hypothesis that prosodic cues, such as stress and pause, aid in the process of disambiguation, both in isolation and in conjunction.

Consideramos a hipótese de que pistas prosódicas, como stress e pausa, auxiliam no processo de desambiguação, tanto de forma isolada quanto em conjunto. O paradigma experimental do presente estudo utilizou um método off-line de processamento linguístico através de um questionário cujas opções de respostas foram apresentadas em uma escala tipo Likert. Os resultados apresentados revelaram predominância de atribuição do adjetivo ao primeiro sintagma nominal, em todas as condições analisadas. Entretanto, a escolha por atribuir o adjetivo ao primeiro sintagma nominal aumentou, de forma estatisticamente significativa, nas condições em que houve manipulação prosódica para esse fim, mostrando evidências para confirmação da nossa hipótese.Universidade Estadual de Campinas2021-10-27info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionTextoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/otherapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br/ojs/index.php/cel/article/view/866060310.20396/cel.v63i00.8660603Cadernos de Estudos Linguísticos; v. 63 (2021): Publicação Contínua; e021004Cadernos de Estudos Linguísticos; Vol. 63 (2021): Continous Publication; e021004Cadernos de Estudos Linguísticos; Vol. 63 (2021): Publicación continua; e0210042447-0686reponame:Cadernos de Estudos Linguísticosinstname:Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP)instacron:UNICAMPporhttps://periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br/ojs/index.php/cel/article/view/8660603/26195Brazil; 2021Brasil; 2021Copyright (c) 2021 Cadernos de Estudos Linguísticoshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAlmeida, René Alain Santana deOliveira Junior, MiguelCozijn, Reinier2023-07-04T17:48:43Zoai:ojs.periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br:article/8660603Revistahttp://revistas.iel.unicamp.br/index.php/cel/PUBhttp://revistas.iel.unicamp.br/index.php/cel/oaispublic@iel.unicamp.br||revistacel@iel.unicamp.br2447-06860102-5767opendoar:2023-07-04T17:48:43Cadernos de Estudos Linguísticos - Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP)false
