The Gradually Descending Stepping Head

This head is a combination of a descending overall contour, even pitch throughout a stress-group, mixed distribution of prominence. Each fully stressed syllable is lower in pitch than the preceding one. Unstressed and partially stressed syllables are said on the same pitch as the previous fully stressed syllable.

E.g.: You can ‘certainly ‘ask him to ‘wait in the `drawing-room.

This type of head may be associated with any nuclear tone in utterances of all communicative types. E.g.: ‘Would you ‘like me to ͵read to you? ‘ What do you ‘think of his ‘new `suit? It ‘isn’t e ‘xactly what I exˇpected.

The GDSH is one of the most typical head in English. It is characteristic of written texts being read aloud, formal conversation, lecturing. It sounds neutral, serious and weighty.

The High Head

In the High Head all the syllables are said on the same rather high pitch. There is only one fully stressed syllable in the High Head, namely the stressed syllable of the first important word, the onset. Other syllables of the head are either unstressed or can take partial stresses.

The High Head is commonly used in conversations, where it occurs more frequently than the Stepping head,

e.g. He ‘keeps ˙making the ˙same mis`take.
