The perception of gonna and gotta – a study of emancipation in progress
Lorenz, David LU
(2012)
p.77-80
- Abstract
- This is an experiment the perceptual differences between full and contracted
semi-modals in English, i.e. the distinction of going to vs gonna and (HAVE) got
to vs gotta. It is a listen-and-repeat experiment and is informed by the findings
of a corpus study of the use of these forms in American English (AmE). It thus
aims to integrate the social/variational and the cognitive sides of the phenomenon.
