a rising movement to a mid tone target when it occurs after a low tone.
a mid level plateau when it occurs after a high tone (the mid tone spreads to the left).
It is found in pedagogic enumerations, in obviousness and disapproval statements and in stylized vocatives.
In this last case, it is normally accompanied by a lengthening of the last syllable and is realized as a sustained mid tone.
