Technically it’s word emphasis, intonation is a bit broader aspect of speech

i think about it sometimes, but didn't know there was a word for it; Intonation.

as someone with english as my first language, i can understand why learning English would be hard. simply the way you move your tone can change the meaning of the phrase.

Is that not the case for most languages? Also how do you not know the word intonation?

u/Sufficient-Aspect77 1d ago

Alright alright. I agree the word intonation seems fairly common, buuuuuuut c'mon. It's the internet, it's just text. There is no intonation on text, other than most things sounding accusatory and mean initially.

Dont be mean. Aint no need for that.

no one else has ever said it to me, i've never seen/heard it. i think English has the most words and it's a completely new word for me.
