| Summary |
Tone and Intonation are two types of pitch variation, which are used to give shape to utterances. In this book, Carlos Gussenhoven provides an up-to-date survey of research into tone and intonation, discussing why speakers vary their pitch, what pitch variations mean, and how they are integrated into our grammars. |
