TOBI, so far1. Pitch Accents
• H* and L*
2. Phrase Accents

Bitonal Pitch Accents• In addition to H* and L*, there are three bitonal pitch accents.
• Here are the first two:
• L + H*
• L* + H
• The starred element denotes the tone which is associated with the stressed syllable.
• L + H* = high peak on stressed syllable, preceded by a sharp rise in pitch.
• L* + H = low pitch target on stressed syllable, followed by a sharp rise in pitch.

Filling the Gap• Another feature of phrase accents is that they fill in the gap between the nuclear accent and the boundary of the intermediate phrase.

More Downstepping• Bitonal pitch accents can also undergo downstepping.

H + !H*• The final pitch accent in the TOBI inventory is H+!H*.
• This one often appears at the beginning of phrases.

Pitch-Accents Round-up• There are five pitch accents:
• H*
• L*
• L + H*
• L* + H
• H + !H*
• The * attaches to stressed syllables.
• The final pitch accent in an intonational phrase is the nuclear accent.
• Generally perceived as more prominent.

Break Indices• 4 marks boundaries between intonational phrases
• associated with a boundary tone (H% or L%)
• sense of complete disjuncture
• 3 marks boundaries between intermediate phrases
• associated with a phrase accent (H- or L-)
• lesser sense of disjuncture
• 1 marks boundaries between words
• 0 marks phonetic coarticulation between words
• (2 marks uncertainties or apparent mismatches)
• rarely used

0 Level Boundaries• 0 level boundaries are marked wherever there is clear coarticulation across a word boundary
• Also for flaps across word boundaries, as in “got it”
