What is Intonation Patterns in English Questions about?

Intonation in English involves the pitch or tone of the voice rising and falling to convey meaning. Statement sentences typically have a falling tone, while yes-no questions have a rising tone and WH-questions have a falling tone. Important words in sentences are stressed through louder volume. Different intonation patterns provide additional context, with rising tones used to invite response and falling tones used to indicate a completed thought.
