Abstract
Description
Enumerations or homogeneous members of a sentence that refer to the same member of the sentence, answer the same question and perform the same syntactic function. Homogeneous members are pronounced with enumeration and, as a rule, homogeneous members are located directly one after the other. The intonation contour of sentences containing enumerations in the English language depends on the context and situation in which the sentence is uttered.
