I couldn't even find the guide, never mind read through it.
Thanks for this information

Hi Phil,
Yes, there is a 4-letter embedded speech command for setting baseline
pitch, "pbas", and there is 4-letter embedded speech command for
modulating pitch, "pmod". You'll have to read through the guide for
details of how each command works, and to get an overview of the basic
principles of customizing speech. They also give example of how to adjust
pronunciation of words.
Cheers,
Esther

simply tell me if there is a pitch or an intonation parameter similar to
the rate parameter?

Embedded commands are described in the section titled "Techniques for
Customizing Synthesized Speech" > "Use Embedded Speech Commands to
Fine-Tune Spoken Output".
