Remember
prosody
Intonation is referred to as a prosodic
feature of English. This is the collective term used to
describe variations in pitch, loudness, tempo, and rhythm.
These features are all involved in intonation, stress, and rhythm.
A literary technique, prosody is the study
of meter,
intonation, and rhythm of
a poetic work. It is a phonetic term that uses meter,
rhythm, tempo, pitch, and loudness in a speech for conveying
information about the meanings and structure of an
utterance.
