  3. My best part of my PhD thesis is probably the paper on rising 'ja' (yes) and 'nej' (no) in Danish). It shows that these are used for affiliation in contrast to the 'normal' versions with level intonation. But it also shows how the rising pitch often (cor)responds to a wide pitch span in the previous turn, as part of making affiliation relevant.

    Now your can get a version of this on ResearchGate (AAM, before layout and proofs)

  9. Weather forecaster on the radio just said “Temperatures will be 3 to 5 degrees, lower than average for June”, but meant “Temperatures will be 3 to 5 degrees lower than average for June”.

    I think so.
    I'm stripping it down to the bare wood and refinishing it.
    I'm unsure what to do with the action. It's way high at the bridge but I know from experience how easy it is to mess it up trying to fix it. I̶ m̶i̶g̶h̶t̶ a̶s̶k̶ f̶o̶r̶ h̶e̶l̶p̶ f̶r̶o̶m̶ a̶ l̶o̶c̶a̶l̶ l̶u̶t̶h̶i̶e̶r̶.

    I tweaked the #Intonation on my main #Guitar. Not all the strings, just three of them that needed it.

    Since I was about 19 years old, I developed a good way of doing it. What you don't want to be doing is just matching the 12th fret harmonic to the 12th fret note. That's good for acoustic guitars.

    On electrics, where people hear your bad intonation the most is your soloing above the 12th. You need good relative tuning among the high notes in that area of the neck.

  16. “Are you being ironic?” Good question! The literal meaning is not always the intended one. An interdisciplinary research team at @MPI_ae found that irony is primarily signaled by moving stress within a sentence.

  17. Our new paper, "Intonation of Greek in contact with Turkish: a diachronic study" (Mary Baltazani,
    Joanna Przedlacka, Özlem Ünal-Logačev, Pavel Logačev and John Coleman) is now open access in Language Variation and Change. We looked at how the intonation in a Modern Greek dialect from Asia Minor i.e. Turkey has changed over four generations, following the community's relocation to mainland Greece in the 1920's.

  19. CW: intonational phonetics

    doing a bunch of intonational annotation these days and there is this thing I keep noticing where the speaker will go creaky towards the end of an utterance (expected) but then at the very end they'll go modal/breathy (for a very brief interval) with a higher pitch than the preceding creak.
