The elements that contribute to the sense of the rhythm of the Igbo language are:

a. the lack of contractions

c. the punctuation

Explanation:

The Igbo language has a strong foundation in the phonetics of vowels since the variety of tones are limited to mostly two, having no contractions and using the same kind of repetitive punctuation help to support the sense of the rhythm that the Igbo language uses, all this focuses in sounds more than what the words really mean.
