Possibly, this is one of the reasons why Swiss German dialects have been investigated thoroughly on various linguistic levels. Nevertheless, natural speech intonation has, until today, not been examined systematically. The aim of this study is to analyze natural Swiss German fundamental frequency behavior according to linguistic, paralinguistic, and extralinguistic variables, using statistical tests against the backdrop of detecting dialect-specific patterns as well as c 410 0$aStudies in language variation ;$v10. 606 $aGerman language$xDialects$zSwitzerland 606 $aGerman language$xIntonation 607 $aSwitzerland$xLanguages 615 0$aGerman language$xDialects 615 0$aGerman language$xIntonation. 676 $a437/.9494 700 $aLeemann$b Adrian$0857085 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910779391503321 996 $aSwiss German intonation patterns$93681779 997 $aUNINA
