An utterance’s intonational characteristics vary according to linguistic meaning; even controlling for meaning, they may vary across speakers, and even across utterances for a given speaker. Phonological annotation systems typically bundle together disparate characteristics, such as f0 scaling, alignment, and prominence (e.g., labels like H*). This can make it difficult to document variation, and also to determine which aspects of the signal (i) result from the phonology-phonetics interface, (ii) vary according to abstract linguistic features, (iii) depend on dialect, social context, or emotional state, or (iv) may be simply noise. This has motivated a new annotation system: Points, Levels, and Ranges (PoLaR). PoLaR takes inspiration from (and can be used alongside) existing theoretical (AM theory) and transcriptional (IPO, IViE, RPT) systems, but is neither a phonological/cognitive model, nor an acoustic/physical model. It isolates individual prosodic characteristics, using labels that transparently correspond to aspects of the acoustics and/or native speaker perception.
