Blurb:

Aspects of speech that stretch over individual segments are introduced in this chapter. Described are length and stress (in the syllable domain), and intonation (in the phrasal domain), as well as long term settings such as loudness and tempo. Some connected speech processes such as elision and assimilation are also dealt with.
