increasing prominence. In this case, the S conveys the least info, the V a little bit more and
the A conveys the most (<- obviously, the info sought by the WH-element).
So, in this case -> low communicative dynamism (SHE), medium (wil decide), strong (next

It’s typical, but not always the case, for the range of CD to increase from low to high -> “to
process the info in a message so as to achieve a linear presentation (it’s the ideal situation)
from low to high info value” -> END-FOCUS <- the most important piece of info is at the end;
we start with the info already known from the previous context
“↓not necessary↓”
BTW: “”Just be careful that the info value DOES NOT directly correspond to prosodic
prominence (how you indicate prominence in speech). Prominence by means of stress or
intonation is realised on a syl able /dɪˈsaɪd/. A syl able does not necessary correlates with
meaning/info value. <- In other words, stress draws attention to the semantic unit within
which the prominent syl able occurs (wil decide). But the whole semantic unit is
IMPORTANT/carries the info. Similarly “next week” -> the stress would be on the head
(week) /nekst wiːk/, but informational y prominent is the whole Adverbial “next week.” <-
stress only draws attention to the whole unit :) (for more info see page 1357)””
