Listen to this sentence said in two different ways I'm so excited to see you I'm so excited to see you There's a difference in the intonation the ups and downs of the voice Perhaps British English tends to move more compared to your native language Well today I'm going to show you how intonation works in standard British English and afterwards you can practice using my brand new pitch tracker When the vocal folds inside the larynx vibrate more quickly we hear a higher pitch This is high Slower vibrations create a lower pitch This is low The green lines here on my pitch tracker visualize the pitch and help you learn more quickly In English we use pitch patterns called tones to show our attitude and emotions It's like vocal body language The more emotional we are the wider the pitch range Compare these Tones even reflect the grammar They can help us distinguish a statement from a question You did it Let's break down the four main tone patterns you need to know We'll use the word more Repeat after me More More More More And again More More More More We'll go through these tones in turn The fall is used for statements Joe went to London Katie's in a meeting The tone usually starts on the stressed syllable of the final content word Content words are words with real meaning like nouns and verbs Here London and meeting are the final content words And the tone begins on the primary stressed syllable of these words London Meeting Joe went to London Katie's in a meeting I am my mother's daughter I am my mother's daughter The world is difficult to navigate The world is difficult to navigate If you think your voice is a bit flat This is the bit to change Start the fall relatively higher Listen to this difference I want to go to London I want to go to London I want to go to London I want to go to London We also use a falling tone for WH questions What's happening?

この文章を2通りの言い方で聞いてみてください。 I'm so excited to see you I'm so excited to see you イントネーションの違い、つまり声の高低の違いです。英語では、自分の態度や感情を表すために、声調と呼ばれるピッチ・パターンを使います。この4つの主なトーン・パターンを説明します moreという単語を使います More More More More More More More More More More More More More More More M

We often use rises for yes no questions Should we go?

私たちはよく、イエス・ノーの質問にライズを使う。

本当にスターになった気分になったことがあるだろうか？

We also use fall rises for yes no questions Should we go?

また、イエス・ノーの質問には秋のライズを使う。

In North America the fall rise tone for questions is much less common But in Britain we love using it and it signals politeness Sorry could you repeat that?

北米では、質問に対するフォールス・ライズ・トーンはあまり一般的ではありませんが、英国では好んで使います。

Tones can work like punctuation Falls are like full stops saying we're finished Rises and fall rises are like commas saying wait there's more to come To be honest I think it's done To be honest I think it's done But what I wanted to say was I also got some useful classical feedback But what I wanted to say was I also got some useful classical feedback We can also use a mid-level tone to indicate we haven't finished This means the pitch stays in the same place in the middle of your voice To be honest I think it's done All the tunes like Pink Floyd, Fleetwood Mac, Rolling Stones It's kind of a shame we don't really listen to records anymore All the tunes like Pink Floyd, Fleetwood Mac, Rolling Stones It's kind of a shame we don't really listen to records anymore Time to test your ears I'm going to read a short dialogue and you have to guess which tones I'm using Where's the chocolate?

トーンは句読点のように機能することができる フォールはフルストップのようなもので、これで終わりですと言う ライズ＆フォール ライズはカンマのようなもので、まだ続きがありますと言う 待ってくださいと言う 正直なところ、それは終わったと思う でも、私が言いたかったのは、有益なクラシックのフィードバックも得られた でも、私が言いたかったのは、有益なクラシックのフィードバックも得られた ミッドレベルのトーンを使って、まだ終わっていないことを示すこともできる これは、ピッチが声の真ん中の同じ場所にとどまることを意味

Mark finished it Mark finished it Are you sure?

マークが完成させた マークが完成させた 本気か？

No No And here are the answers Where's the chocolate?

No If you found that tricky then practice with my free pitch tracker I recommend starting with a long M sound and see if you can move the pitch up and down And then try some statements and questions you use every day This visual feedback makes all the difference You can see what you're doing and adjust it if necessary At the bottom of this page you'll find a link to download the PDF notes from this video Just scan the QR code or click the link in the description Now I want to hear from you Is intonation in your language similar to English or not?
