Abstract : To answer the question if word-accent is significant for differentiating homonyms, a probabilistic model is constructed and applied for real data. It is a binominal model for the number of key words in a set of homonyms, each of which generates a group of words with the same accent. The common probability of a keyword occurrence indicates how strongly homonyms are differentiated with word-accent, although the model fitting is good for Japanese but not so for either English or Chinese. The estimated probabilities are 0.1357, 0.0047 and 0.71 respectively for Japanese, English and Chinese, which are significantly different.

It is a binominal model for the number of key words in a set of homonyms, each of which generates a group of words with the same accent. The common probability of a keyword occurrence indicates how stronly homonyms are differentiated with word-accent, although the model fitting is good for Japanese but not so for other English or Chinese. The estimated probabilities are 0.1357, 0.0047 and 0.71 respectively for Japanese, English and Chinese, which are significantly different.
