In the description of the English intonation system intonation patterns are traditionally presented as pitch-patterns, or contours. Prehead Unstressed or partially stressed syllables which precede the first full stress (the onset) form the prehead. Prosody This term is often used synonymously with the term intonation or suprasegmentals, but may also include the study of syllable structure. R Rhythm The notion of rhythm implies, first of all, a certain periodicity of phonological events. For an English utterance these events are the stressed syllables. Periodicity does not necessarily mean equality of time intervals between certain phenomena. Rhythmic groups Stress-groups act as units of the rhythmic structure of an utterance and can, therefore, be called rhythmic groups. S Scandent (climbing) heads Scandent (climbing) heads are characterized by an upward pitch movement over the stress-groups. Simple tune An intonation-group corresponding to a grammatical sentence is marked by specific characteristics of tone, stress and duration, serving to express semantic completeness and independence – the relevant features of an utterance. An intonation-group of this kind is defined as a simple tune. Sliding heads Sliding heads are characterized by a downward pitch movement over the stress-groups. 72 Static (level) tones Static (level) tones are produced by keeping the vocal cords at a constant tension thus producing a tone of unvarying pitch. According to the actual height within the speaker’s voice range static tones may be high, mid ad low. Static tones give prominence to words. In general, the degree of prominence is proportional to the pitch-height of the static tone: the higher varieties are usually associated with greater prominence and, consequently, greater semantic importance. жүктеу/скачать 0,6 Mb.
