This paper discusses stress patterns concerning the relation between intonation and the meaning of an utterance. It is argued that this should be done within a linguistic approach. While the first part of this paper deals with differences in meaning that are caused by differences in intonation, the second part gives an overview over the focus theories of Hohle, Rochemont, and Jacobs. Within this discussion the interrelation is shown between the syntactic feature (+F) (+focus) and the phonetic and semantic properties of an utterance.
