Phonostylistics
Phonostylistics studies phonetic features which are at the speaker's writer's disposal to
emphasize words or the whole utterance. The phonetic arrangement of the utterance does not
exist by itself- it is iseparably connected with the meaning and message. Phonetically we
distinguish between prosodic means and what may be termed as orchestration of sounds.
Prosodic means
Include such phenomena of speech as loudness, diapason (pitch), acceleration or slowing
down the tempo, pausation, logical and emphatic stress, intonation contours. In this respect
the written text is far from being perfect, much of it can be pronounced differently and
therefore understood differently.
