Segmentative function of prosody in discourse by Zuraidah Mohd. Don

“…To attain this goal, the study relies on a detailed analysis of transcribed recordings of selected fragments of Malay broadcast interviews. By adopting a descriptive framework that recognises prosody as consisting of prosodic resources such as pitch, loudness, tempo and pause, I am able to present a formal characterisation of prosodic realisations in Malay spoken discourse. …”
