| | Tone (linguistics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Tone is frequently an areal rather than a genetic feature: that is, a language may acquire tones through bilingualism if influential neighboring languages are tonal, or if speakers of a tonal language switch to the language in question. |  | | In Asian and Meso-American contexts, numerical systems are most common, whereas accent marks are used mainly in African contexts. |  | | As a result, when one combines tone with sentence prosody, the absolute pitch of a high tone at the end of a clause may be lower than that of a low tone at the beginning, because average pitch tends to decrease with time in a process called downdrift. |

| | INVESTIGATING PEAK TIMING IN NATURALLY-OCCURRING SPEECH. |
 | | He cites evidence from Swedish which shows that the starred tone within word accents is the point most reliably anchored in the stressed syllable; other f0 points, such as the focal H accent, may not be critically timed to specific syllables but will be adjusted in alignment according to the segmental material available. |  | | For each IO the timing of the f0 peak was calculated as a percentage of the total duration of the accented syllable. |  | | Swerts (1994) (cf also Swerts et al 1994), in a study of the prosodic correlates of finality, observes that in synthesised utterances the timing of the f0 peak (H*) on the nuclear accent affects the degree of perceived finality. |

 | | Historical linguistics of Cantonese also shows that the Cantonese accent spoken in Canton and Hong Kong is relatively new. |  | | Ironically, Hakka and Cantonese shared deep-rooted features such as development of tonal classes. |  | | Deep-rooted structure such as grammar and pronounciation methods also shows than Cantonese are more similar to Hakka. |

| | Accent (linguistics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In linguistics, an accent is pronunciation of a language that is distinctive enough to identify the speaker as a member or non-member of a particular group of persons. |  | | Accent should not be confused with dialect (q.v.), which is a variety of language differing in vocabulary and grammar as well as pronunciation. |  | | An accent may be associated with the region in which its speakers reside (a geographical accent), the socio-economic status of its speakers, their ethnicity, their caste or social class, their first language (when the language in which the accent is heard is not their native language), and so on. |

 | | Moreover, it removed from linguistics an awkward attempt to rely on imprecise relationships, and it suggested that linguistic phenomena must be accounted for with the rigor demanded in the physical sciences. |  | | Comparative linguistics cannot, to be sure, completely deny the element of chance; but chance occurrence en masse as here, where the instances of irregular shifting are nearly as frequent as those of regular shifting, it cannot and may not admit. |  | | Those instances in which the accent rested on the root syllable were already in the majority under the old accent principle, and this method of accentuation then spread in Proto-Germanic, when those word forms which had the accent on the ending gradually retracted it to the root syllable. |
