To better understand how prosody works (and why it’s so important), try saying the word “really” five times in a row, changing the meaning each time as follows: How cool is that?!I don’t believe you. I’m shocked. I’m delighted. I’m telling the truth. If you did this exercise, you changed your prosody at each repetition of the word, even though your pronunciation of the word (REE-lee) remained the same....

Of course, a breeze of any kind can send the fine, misty spray toward your eyes, so pay attention to air currents too....
