Institution:

Harvard University

Subject:

Description:

Prosody and intonation are intricately linked to many domains of language use and linguistic structure. We examine the phonetic form of prosodic contours and intonational grouping, the function of prosody in expressing semantic and pragmatic information and in disambiguation during sentence production and comprehension, and the use of "implicit" prosody even in silent reading.
