PHONETIC NOTES
1. Характерным для английского языка является сложный нисходяще-
восходящий тон (the falling-rising tone, или Fall-Rise). Нисходяще-
восходящий тон наблюдается в смыс
ловых группах, требующих восходящего тона, в которых
коммуникативный центр высказывания выделен понижением тона.
Нисходяще-восходящее движение тона может осуществляться в пределах
одного слога или распространяться на большее количество слогов.
Употребление нисходяще-восходящего тона вместо простого
восходящего тона характерно для эмоционально окрашенной речи:
They are in xCanada ,now.
.. ♦ " .. *У
2. Интонация обращения (Direct Address). Интонация обращения
зависит от его места в предложении. В начале предложения обращение
всегда ударно, обычно образует самостоятельную смысловую группу и
произносится, как правило, с нисходяще-восходящим тоном. Например:
xGran,ny, | -»have I any ,cousins? * j ~ .
81
В официальной речи или когда обращение направлено к аудитории,
оно произносится с нисходящим тоном:
Comrade Ivaxnova, | -» come to the /blackboard, please.
– • •
•
– • •
В середине и в конце предложения обращение безударно и
продолжает мелодию предшествующей смысловой группы:
–»Come a,long, my dearest.
3. В предложениях, содержащих перечисление (enumeration), обычно
каждая неконечная смысловая группа произносится с восходящим тоном.
Например:
The Vfive 'members of his 'family xare: | his /mother, | his sister-in-law, |
his -> son /Benny, | his -» wife ,Helen | and himxself.
