    Right. It's kind of like how in English you raise your voice up slightly when asking a question, and make other such tonal changes depending on the context of what you're saying. In Chinese, the words themselves already rely heavily on those tones, so they add a syllable at the end to do the adjusting. If you changed the tone of the words in the actual sentence, you might change the meaning of the word itself.

      That's why poetry in Cantonese is so much more in depth than poetry in any other language/dialect.

      (cuz cantonese has a max. of 9 tones as oppose to 4 in mandarin)
