Isi artikel

n discourse, frequently the truth value of a proposition is an issue under discussion. When speakers determine the actual truth value of an issue, they often mark this with phonetic focus on the finite verb. The phonetic focus in these utterances is argued to be a contrastive marking, signaling a contrast between the unspecified modality of some information in an earlier state and the determined truth value.
