>There is no language where intonation doesn't convey meaning. If you find that surprising, it's hard to see how you've even been able to speak before.

Note again that I never said that that was the case. I just don't see how that makes my example faulty. I'd also like an example, if you can provide one, of another case where the expected answer from a question is changed merely by changing the question's intonation.

(Sorry for the slow reply; I forgot about this board. It's not on the iichan menu yet.)
