Intonation of Parentheses



Model : Well, I don’t ˎknow

What do you think of Nick? >Well, | I don’t ˎknow

ˏWell, | I don’t ˎknow

ˎWell, | I don’t ˎknow

He is a ˎnice chap, I think.


Parentheses express the speaker’s attitude towards the utterance.




Parentheses at the Beginning of the Sentence

When the speaker doesn’t attach any importance to the parenthetical words at all they don’t form a separate intonation-group and are often unstressed and are pronounced very quickly.


e.g. Well, I ˎdo. Well, I ˎdo.
If the speaker attaches more importance to parentheses, they form an intonation-group. In this case they are stressed and are pronounced with any nuclear tone: Low Fall, Low Rise, Mid Level or Fall Rise.
e.g. ˎWell, | I do.
