National varieties of English with their own norms and rules (America, Autralian, Indian)

Empieza por F

A pattern of intonation where the pitch of the voice decreases at the end of a phrase.

Empieza por G

This function helps identify structures in speech as punctuation does in writing.

Contiene la H

The branch of linguistics that studies how sounds are organized into a systematic "code" within a specific language.

Contiene la J

A word or phrase that is used as a short, sudden expression of emotion. (Hey!, Oh, Thank you.)

Empieza por L

A flat pitch (no rise or fall), often used in monotone speech or certain discourse functions.

Empieza por M

This language uses four tones—level, rising, falling, and high-rising—to distinguish words or syllables that have the same series of consonants and vowels but different meanings.

Empieza por N

The most prominent syllable in an intonation unit (tonic syllable), where the main pitch movement happens.

Contiene la O

This function of intonation signals to the listener what is new and given information.

Empieza por P

The fundamental building block of intonation. Auditory sensation

Contiene la Q

A rising pitch pattern is typically used in this type of questions.

Empieza por R

The pattern of in stressed and unstressed syllables in speech. English is stress-timed, which strongly interacts with intonation.

Contiene la S

The syllable in the tone group which stands out because it carries the major pitch change.

Empieza por T

The quality or character of sound, which can convey emotions in speech.

Empieza por U

An uninterrupted chain of spoken or written language.

Contiene la Y

Dialect of the English language traditionally spoken by working-class Londoners. It is also often used to refer to anyone from London—in particular, from its East End.
