The document discusses the use of tone and pitch in speech. It notes that tone indicates the speaker's gender, age, and emotional state. It defines four levels of pitch - low, middle, high, and extra high. Tone can express emphasis for emotions like fear or surprise. Lines above or below words indicate the pitch or tone of the word - high, normal, or low. Tone usually changes between syllables but can also change within a syllable. There are two main intonation patterns - rising-falling and rising, which refer to the movement of pitch on the last accented syllable.

1. •It is the tune of what we say .
• It is the combination of musical tones.
• It usually indicates whether the speaker is
male or female, his or her age.
• It also conveys the speaker’s emotional state.

2. 1 low pitch
2 middle pitch
3 high pitch
4 extra high

3. • This tone is used to express emotional
emphasis, such as fear or surprise.
Example:

out tonight.

4. • A line just above the word indicates a high
tone.
• It usually coincides with the last sentence
stress.
Example:
The situation is intolerable.

5. • A line drawn directly at the base of a word
shows that the word is pronounced with a
normal tone.
Example:
What time did you call me?

6. • A line well below the level of a word indicates
a low tone.
Example:
I’d like to speak to you.

7. • Usually the movement from one tone to
another takes place between syllables.
Example:
The new team is as good as the old one.

8. • The voice slides from one tone to another
while it is pronouncing a syllable; such
movement within a syllable is marked by a line
curving up or down.
Example:
She didn’t say a word.

9. 1. Rising-Falling Intonation.
It ends with a downward glide of the voice on
the last accented syllable.
2. Rising Intonation
It ends with an upward glide of the voice on the
last accented syllable.
