This study describes the intonation pattern of Langkat Malay speech in happy emotions. This research is an experimental phonetic study to experiment with happy speech among the ordinary people and the aristocracy in Tanjungpura, Langkat Regency, North Sumatra. Data obtained from the utterances of six informants and 40 respondents who were tested. This study uses the acoustic-phonetic theory and Praat program. The target speech in the study for happy emotions is [sәnãή benã amba mәndeήãr kabήã jo]. The research method used in this research is by using the Average method. The data obtained will be processed to determine how much the intonation of happy feelings in Malay language utterances is still used. The results showed that the average person's emotional content was higher than among the aristocrats, and there was a difference in the duration of the pronunciation. By making changes to happy emotional speech, namely decreasing several sts, the result still shows the meaning of happy emotions. Even when it is raised a few sts, the result becomes a pleasing emotional meaning | en_US |
