phrasing in speech[edit]

The Cambridge Grammar of the English Language, page 102, reads

In He looks, always, quite miserable and They go – probably – by bus,  the adverb is set off by intonation and phrasing in speech

What does phrasing in speech mean? How is it different from intonation? --Backinstadiums (talk) 18:30, 6 October 2019 (UTC)Reply
