- Abstract
- We address the intonation of Bulgarian Judeo-Spanish (Djudezmo), a diaspora variety of Spanish brought to the former Ottoman Empire by the Sephardic Jews after their expulsion from the Iberian Peninsula in the late 15th century and still spoken by their descendants in the respective communities. Based on readings of "The North Wind and the Sun", recorded by four Djudezmo-Bulgarian bilinguals and four Bulgarian monolinguals (age: 79-88, sex: fem., data collection: Sofia 2011/2016) we show that the bilingual speakers use the same inventory of pitch accents and boundary tones in both of their languages and that they differ from the Bulgarian monolinguals only in the frequencies of pre-nuclear H* and L+H* on penultimate stress words. This speaks in favor of convergence of Djudezmo with the speakers’ dominant language, Bulgarian, at the level of intonation.
