TY - RPRT T1 - Why sentence modality in spontaneous speech is more difficult to classify and why this fact is not too bad for prosody T3 - Saarbrücken, 1994 A1 - Batliner,Anton A1 - Weiand,C. A1 - Kießling,Andreas A1 - Nöth,Elmar Y1 - 2011/08/11 N2 - We show in this paper that the labeling of sentence modality in German, esp. of questions vs. non-questions, is more difficult for spontaneous than for read speech and easier for non-elliptic than for elliptic utterances. However, the prosodic marking of sentence modality is more important in elliptic utterances that occur more often in spontaneous speech.
