Résumé

I show (a) the correlations between intonation, prosody and pragmatic constituent order as far as UIH is concerned, and the iconic link between them; (b) that those factors and their linguistic expressions override and determine grammatical forms and roles, not the other way round; (c) that the relative importance attributed to each part of the utterance, as well as its communicative and expressive values, depend first and foremost on the speakers intention, idiosyncrasy, state of mind, context, relative urgency and the like, and that grammar is not the starting point of speech, in other words that the grammar-first hypothesis is dead wrong and that there is no dislocation. UIH is what it is about and not IS since the communication mode we are dealing with is pragmatic-deictic, not grammatical-semantic.
