William Greaves, Michael Halliday

About this book

Intonation in the Grammar of English is written for scholars interested in language, but not necessarily linguists or phoneticians. An introduction covers speech sound, locating it in relation to other phenomena and disciplines, discussing its representation and interpretation, and introducing the systems and strata which frame its analysis in terms of systemic functional linguistics.
