Ch.11: Intonation by Carlos Gussenhoven

 

"Intonation refers to the structured variation in pitch which is not deter­mined by lexical distinctions. As will become clear, there is no particular theoretical motivation for this division from a phonological perspective, and the two domains often overlap (see Yip Ch.10). In this chapter, I concentrate on the representation of the melodic aspects of intonation."
