Prosody can help allocate the precise implication to phrases/ sentences like 'can of soda' (linguistic aspect) or assist a listener comprehend how a speaker feels (emotional aspect). This essay will delve into the linguistic aspects of prosody. Important neurological and behavioural research regarding linguistic prosody will be addressed as well as its relevance to the field of prosody. Furthermore, this essay will try to look into critical questions regarding possible future research. Preceding to the introduction of 'functional imaging', an investigation into the 'biology of language' hinged on exploring the structure and conduct of big clusters of individuals with principal brain damage. The introduction of 'functional imaging, magnetic and electrical recording' in this area has permitted corresponding viewpoints on the association of evidence for theories on linguistic prosody [1]. The primary goal of research in language 'perception' is to explain by what means the auditory input is characterised 'phonetically' and is interpreted as speech. Specific brain areas are considered as dedicated for 'auditory processing' [1]. These areas, situated 'bilaterally' in the temporal lobe are 'transverse temporal gyrus'; understood to be the location of the prime 'auditory cortex', and auditory association cortexes [1].
