Abstract
(en) The study aims to uncover the relation between frequency and duration of silent pauses, their interaction with syntax and with disfluencies, and their variation in different spoken registers. The analysis of 4 845 silent pauses retrieved from a multi-genre corpus (duration 3 h 38 min) demonstrates that syntactic position is the strongest predictor of silent pause duration. This correlation is stronger in prepared and broadcasted speech. We discuss the use of duration thresholds for filtering out silent pauses and we also suggest alternative ways to represent pause duration when pauses are not normally distributed.
