Resumé

Haven't you often asked yourself why talking computers are easy to understand, but often do not hit the right note? And haven't you often found yourself missing the right tone of voice in a foreign language because you were only taught grammar and vocabulary? It is reasons like these that make research and development activities on tone and intonation so important. With the 1st International Conference of Tone and Intonation, the SDU is pleased to be laying the foundation for one of the world's largest new conference series on the forms and functions of human and digital voices. This will help advance the teaching of Danish and foreign languages, it can create bridges to Danish language technology, and it will the make research of the Danish language itself more attractive and visible.
