Arnold Schoenberg devised a 12-tone scheme of atonal music about a century ago.

纪以前，Arnold Schoenberg已经设计出种无调音乐，由12音色组合而成。

Some with a lot of prosodic cues, while others were read in an atonal, almost robotic voice.

有些有很多韵律提示， 而另些则以无调性、几乎是机人的声音朗读。

" Ligeti, " she sniffed, checking her makeup in her compact as we headed down in the lift, the hammering, atonal notes climbing and receding above us.

“Ligeti， ” 她吸了吸鼻子，检查着粉盒里的妆容， 我们正朝电梯走去， 敲击声、无调调的音符在我们上下。

The words had been uttered with the Bene Gesserit controlled atonals, carrying in it every shade of contempt and scorn that Paul could put there Bene-Gesserit trained indeed, Paul thought.

这些话是用贝尼·杰瑟里特控制的无调调说出来的，里面带着保罗可以用贝尼·杰瑟里特训练的每种轻蔑和蔑视，保罗想。
