外国人学習者の日本語アクセント・イントネーション習得(第二言語習得,<特集>音声の獲得)

抄録

This paper reviews research papers published since 1990 on the acquisition of the Tokyo accent and intonation by foreign learners of Japanese. Intonation studies examined in this paper were mainly focused on the acquisition of sentence final pitch patterns for interrogative sentences in Japanese. As for accent acquisition studies, both production and perception studies were analyzed. With the surprising improvements of computer technology in recent years, it is expected that a great amount of progress could be done in research on the acquisition of accent and intonation in the future.
