Intonation
Intonation is used to refer to distinctive use of different patterns of
pitch that carry meaningful information.
Four type of intonation
• Fall intonation
• Rise intonation
• Fall-rise intonation
• Rise-fall intonation
Rising intonation- increase over time
falling intonation- decrease with time
Functions of intonation
• Attitudinal function- it express our feelings, attitudes, emotions. For
example; happiness, boredom, anger
• Accentual function- the placement of stress is determined by
intonation.
• Grammatical function- it is determined by intonation. The listener is
better to recognize the grammar and syntax structure. For example :
those who sold quickly, made a profit( a profit was made by those who
sold quickly) . those who sold quickly , made a profit( a profit was
quickly made by those who sold)
• Discourse function- the listener is able to recognize which information
is “new” and which already “taken”.
RP, Cockney, Estuary
RP- Received Pronunciation
it was popular 30-40 years ago, it is pronunciation of the British
aristocracy. It is also called Queen’s English, Oxford an BBC English.
Cockney is another accent, which is working class accent. The speakers
themselves were not Cockney speakers.
The new accent Estuary English was described by the British linguist
