This volume contains detailed surveys of the intonational phonology
of fourteen typologically diverse languages, described in the
Autosegmental-Metrical framework. Unlike the first volume, half of
the languages, which vary in their word prosody as well as their
geographic distribution, are understudied languages or researched
through fieldwork. All chapters provide the prosodic structure and
intonational categories of the language as well as a description of
focus prosody. The book concludes with a chapter on the methodology
of studying intonation from data collection to analysis and a
chapter which proposes a new way of characterizing the intonation
of the world's languages. The sound files which accompany the
descriptions are available on the book's companion website.
