| Sumario: | The main objective of this paper is to describe the tonal configurations of the assertive statements in the Spanish of Tuxtla Gutiérrez, Chiapas. The analysis integrates three data sources: formal, semi-spontaneous and spontaneous. The findings show: i)the nuclear pitch accent L+(¡)H*, favoured by men and by the spontaneous style, and ii)the early alignment of the first tonal peak, favoured by the adult age group and those with a low level of instruction. By offering a sociolinguistic and geolinguistic description of this variety this paper seeks to provide new data in the field of prosodic dialectology in Mexico. |
