旧信息用非重音表达：是否为认知共性？

我感觉不应该这么绝对。口语中的given-new contract can also be achieved by lengthening, pre-intonation-unit pause, specific lexical and syntactic choice, and very probably can be achieved by gestures and other non-verbal means. Any statement about spontaneous speech is not easy to make.
 
But probablistically, there should be a general tendency to the use of de-accenting to make explicit or salient given/old information.
 
Cannot agree more.

To me this is one of the differences between new generation discourse research and the old school as represented by C and many others.
 
the old school as represented by C and many others.
C：Cruttenden or euphemism for Chomsky or who else named after A B?

其实也不一定，关键看谈话双方的交谈中是否强调某个信息，就信息而言，新旧是认知的问题，但是，新旧信息同时也是一个相对的概念，而且旧信息并不一定就用非重音表达，汉语中谈话就有很多这样的例子，新旧信息往往在谈话中交替出现，二者没有必然联系，更谈不上认知共性，老乔的书读得太多，总想从其中找到一些人类语言的共性这是好的，但不要将英语中的规律往汉语中套！起码应验证一下先！乱于以上，不情之处，请包涵；谬误之处，请指正！
