The high rising terminal HRT , also known as uptalk , upspeak , rising inflection or high rising intonation HRI , is a feature of some accents of English language English where statements have a rising Intonation linguistics intonation pattern in the final syllable or syllables of the utterance. Empirically, Ladd 1996, pg 123 proposes that HRT in American English and Australian English is marked by a high tone high pitch or high fundamental frequency beginning on the final accented syllable near the end of the statement the terminal , and continuing to increase in frequency up to 40 to the end of the intonational phrase. New research such as that conducted by Warren 2005 suggests that the actual rise can occur one or more syllables after the last accented syllable of the phrase, and its range is much more variable than previously thought.
