研究发现韩语萌系说话时通过提高元音频率来模仿儿童音色。
Korean aegyo speech shows systematic F1 increase to signal childlike qualities
- 通过分析12名首尔语者发音，对比萌系与正常语调的共振峰频率。
- 萌系语音中所有元音F1显著升高，前元音部分前移，整体音域扩大。
- 适合对语言声学、跨文化沟通或语音风格感兴趣的读者。
韩语aegyo是一种社会公认的儿童化说话方式，主要在成年人的浪漫互动中使用。本研究分析了12名首尔韩语使用者在相同脚本下以aegyo和非aegyo风格发音的共振峰频率。结果显示，aegyo语音中所有元音的F1值显著升高，前元音出现选择性前移，导致元音空间扩展，但主要表现为F1整体提升。这些发现表明，成年说话者通过模仿儿童较短声带结构，主要借助全局元音降低和部分前移来实现童声风格化。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Korean aegyo is a socially recognized childlike speaking style used predominantly in romantic interactions among adults. This study examined vowel space modification in aegyo by analyzing formant frequencies from twelve Seoul Korean speakers who produced identical scripts in aegyo and non-aegyo styles. Results show that aegyo speech features a significant increase in F1 values across vowels and selective fronting of front vowels, leading to vowel space expansion but mainly a shift to higher F1. These findings suggest that adult speakers stylize childlike speech by imitating the shorter vocal tract of children, mainly through global vowel lowering and partial fronting.
