The file called ‘Halliday-Greaves’ contains the entire book in PDF format. There is a crucial difference between the digital version and the paper version. Both versions contain numerous sound icons (the word PLAY plus a small image of a speaker). In the book these are just ink on paper, but in the CD version you can click on the icons to hear the sounds we are writing about (and if your cursor hovers over the icon you will see the name of the actual soundfi le which is in the Links folder on this CD) We would strongly recommend that you have the CD running in your computer

A Primer of American IntonationA'lthough I started to write this'little booklet only in .|985, it actually began 35 years ear'lier - one winter evening in .|950 at Indiana University. There at one of the sess'ions of the Ethno- Linguistics Seminar (the periodic meeting ground of all the facu'lty and students in linguistics), Henry Lee Smith, Jr. presented the analysis of English sounds that he and George Trager were soon to publish. The part of thejr ana'lysis that dealt with pitch, stress, and juncture seized my attention that evening and has never let go.

Modelling British English Intonation
10
 
 
Modelling British English IntonationThe present research sets out to give a melodic description of British English intonation which is so explicit that it can be used for the control of pitch in a speech synthesis system. Intonation is studied in accordance with the principles that have been followed with success in the study of Dutch intonation at the Institute for Perception Research. The description is based on a mixture of acoustic and perceptual analysis of speech samples and, using speech resynthesis as a research tool, any claims made are experimentally verified.
