POKUS O NOVÝ NÁHĽAD NA INTONÁCIU V SLOVENSKÝCH MÉDIÁCH (NA MATERIÁLI TELEVÍZNEHO SPRAVODAJSTVA)

The article is devoted to the binding ness of codified intonation waveforms in speeches of Slovak media (on an example of the contributions from television news). In our opinion, symptomatic speech intonation can be regarded as acceptable, if it meets specific communication function (friendly audience, closer contact with the audience). As examples of such intonation we provide an analysis of welcome blocks of news programs, where a higher level of informality is presented and reflected in the intonation area. The second group of the analysed speeches consists of reading reports presenting the following report. A common feature of the symptomatic intonation with an insufficient descending or ascending intonation in the news is that they occur mainly in positive speeches respectively in the talks about interests, curiosities, and so on.
