Cuad. linguist. hisp. [online]. 2016, n.28, pp.41-67. ISSN 0121-053X.  https://doi.org/10.19053/0121053X.4908.

Abstract Despite of the existence of a large, specialized literature regarding to the study of adverbs, there is still a scarce number of investigations about their prosodic realization. In this article, the melodic contours of the adverbial pair "sólo-solamente" [just-only] are described. Also, it is determined if the mentioned contours are systematic when they foster a semantic or pragmatic value. For this study, 88 examples of the oral-informal register belonging to the Corpus de Habla de Monterrey [Speech Corpus of Monterrey] were used. All cases were analyzed under the criteria of the Metric and Autosegmental Model (AM) and the transcription system Sp-ToBI. The results show that the prosodic realization of the adverbial pair presents configurations linked to the pragmatic content, but this is not a matter of discrete categories, because there are some cases in which prosodic strategies are absent and discursive strategies, such as context and lexical content, are maintained.
