Research on the prosody and intonation of creole languages has largely remained an untapped resource, yet it is important for enriching our understanding of how or if their phonological systems changed or developed under contact. Further, their hybrid histories and current linguistic ecologies present descriptive and analytical treasure troves. This has the potential to inform many areas of linguistic inquiry including contact effects on the typological classification of prosodic systems, socioprosodic variation (individual and community level), and the scope of diversity in prosodic systems among creole languages and across a variety of languages similarly influenced by language contact. Thus, this review highlights the importance of pushing beyond questions of creole language typology and genetic affiliation. I review the existing research on creole language prosody and intonation, provide some details on a few studies, and highlight some key challenges and opportunities for the subfield and for linguistics in general.

克里奥尔语的语调和韵律:不断发展的生态学

克里奥尔语的韵律和语调研究在很大程度上仍然是一个未开发的资源,但它对于丰富我们对他们的语音系统如何或是否在接触下发生变化或发展的理解非常重要。此外,它们的混合历史和当前的语言生态学提供了描述性和分析性的宝库。这有可能为语言研究的许多领域提供信息,包括接触对韵律系统类型分类的影响、社会韵律变异(个人和社区层面),以及克里奥尔语和受类似影响的各种语言之间韵律系统的多样性范围通过语言联系。因此,这篇综述强调了超越克里奥尔语类型学和遗传归属问题的重要性。
