Abstract

A practical, light-hearted introduction to intonation.

Description

Intonation Practice is humorous, light, and interesting. It is easy for both students and teachers to use as it assumes no previous knowledge of the subject. It is a practical book which presents intonation from a functional/communicative aspect. The material is grouped into functions such as greeting, thanking, wishing and hoping, reassuring, etc, and the intonation is presented in a simple, graphic form which can be understood by students at all levels. The early chapters can be used by near beginners and the book progresses to intermediate level, but it can be used at any level as practice material and as a continual source of reference throughout the student's language learning career.
