Turn-taking
Prosody can also signal when it's someone else's turn to speak. For
example, a speaker might lower their pitch at the end of a sentence
to indicate that it's a question, prompting the listener to respond.
Conversely, a speaker might use a rising pitch at the end of a
sentence to signal that they are not finished speaking and that they
are expecting the listener to continue the conversation.
