pausa
See also: pausá
English
Etymology
From Latin pausa (“break”), from Ancient Greek παῦσις (paûsis). Doublet of pause.
Noun
pausa (uncountable)
- (linguistics, phonology) The hiatus between prosodic units, e.g. at the end of a sentence.
- 1954, Johannes Hendrik Kramers, Analecta orientalia: posthumous writings and selected minor works:
- The rule is that in the pausa a word must never end on a short vowel, but it may do so in the context.
- 1998, Pádraig MacCoisdealbha, The Syntax of the Sentence in Old Irish, →ISBN:
- Besides, the pausa endposition may have served to highlight the informational value of the substituendum.
- 2004, Gerhard Endress, Rüdiger Arnzen, & Jörn Thielmann, Words, Texts, and Concepts Cruising the Mediterranean Sea, →ISBN:
- In pausa you say 'ih, in the jussive la- ta'ih, analogous to 'ih, la- ta'ih. And since t' is complete as two letters, the tongue utters both of them in the pausa.
- 2005, Éva Ágnes Csató, Bo Isaksson, & Carina Jahani, Linguistic Convergence and Areal Diffusion: Case Studies from Iranian, page 245:
- For instance, the perfect in -miš (> -mi before pausa) always has the high unrounded vowel, the abstract noun suffix appears in a single variant +luġ, the infinitive is -maġ and the insturmental +ine.
