Intonation refers to the way in which a person's voice rises and falls in pitch while speaking. This can communicate a range of emotions and attitudes, and can convey important information about the speaker's intended meaning. Pitch refers more specifically to the highness or lowness of a person's voice, while volume refers to how loud or soft they are speaking. Rate refers to the speed at which a person is speaking.
