(I am still quite early in my learning process. Maybe a year and a half. I haven't done much speaking at all but I've been told my pronunciation is fairly natural. I doubt it, so I am going to study pitch accent directly now…)
Anyways, I know for example, sentence pacing and grammar can be completely different from normal speaking, and even word pronunciation can be different for artistic purposes such as 行こう/いうこう or 寂しい/さみしい. I was wondering if pitch accent is for the most part maintained?
