초록
This paper reports what, if any, effects of optional subject and object case markers have on intonation in Burmese. Declarative sentences are recorded with four variables: presence of both case markers, only one of the case markers and absence of both case markers. The results show that there is a small peak in pitch at the juncture between subject/object and the case markers. Additionally, two previously unreported phenomena were observed. First, downstep was found in the high tone context. Second, in the creaky voice context, a linear shift of creaky voice from the creaky voice morpheme to a non-creaky voice suffix was found.
