Citazioni 

If successive tones are restricted, then each tone is dependent on the other tones in the utterances. Distributionally, the tones are not independent, and hence need not be regarded as separate elements. The independent elements are the whole sequences of tones within the utterance.
- Harris (1951), a pag.49

In English, higher tone is usually associated with louder stress.
- Harris (1951), a pag.54
