Abstract
The aim of this article is to analyse the strategies for focus marking in four interactions in a political debate.
Such debate, known as 7D, was broadcasted on December 7th, 2015 on La Sexta. The politics who
took part were Pedro Sánchez (representative of the Partido Socialista Obrero Español), Albert Rivera (representing Ciudadanos),
Pablo Iglesias (Podemos) and Soraya Sáenz (Partido Popular). I will analyse the procedures used by the speakers to focalize parts
of their formal spontaneous speech, such as the fundamental frequency, duration and loudness in tonic vowels, as well as the rate
of speech and pauses among other strategies.
