Our goal here is to construct, insofar as possible, a scenario for an intonation methodology in which intonation patterns can be explained taking into account a sociolinguistic perspective. We preferred to start with a description of what happened, a review of the previous Spanish literature, focusing specifically on the methodological developments. The methodology presented here looks at the role of social factors – speaker gender, age, level of education, and at the ways in which social identities and beliefs shape and influence intonation.
Key words:
intonation, sociolinguistics, social factors, methodology
