!H% is manifested phonetically as a falling movement to a mid tone target or as a mid level plateau when it occurs after a high tone (the mid tone may spread to the left).
It is found in pedagogic enumerations, in hesitation statements, in polite yes-no questions 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.
Example: Pedagogic enumeration
Estaban María, Bárbara, Ana, Eva...
[There were María, Bárbara, Ana, Eva...]
Example: Vocative
¡Bobi!
[Bobi!]
Example: Polite yes-no question
Hola, ¿tiene mermelada?
[Hi, do you have marmelade?]
