No 4. Intonation
Intonation, in phonetics, the melodic pattern of an utterance.
Intonation is primarily a matter of variation in the pitch level of the
voice, but in such languages as English, stress and rhythm are also
involved. Intonation conveys differences of expressive meaning
(e.g., surprise, anger, wariness).
See a word in Urdu in different pitch..
ok اچھا۔۔۔۔۔۔۔
surprised اچھا۔۔۔۔۔۔۔
threat اچھا۔۔۔۔۔۔۔
So our course and booklets are designed to solve all these problems.
Thank you very much.
