Understanding Paratone in Speech Intonation by cabreralescanoam is a document available to read on EtoBox.
A paratone is the largest intonation pattern that can be assigned an identifiable function, similar to a paragraph in written language. It typically features a wide pitch range at the beginning that narrows towards the conclusion, often used by newsreaders.
