Résumé En

This study addresses the production and perception of four emotions (anger, joy, sadness, and fear) performed in Brazilian Portuguese sentences of di erent modes: declarative (assertions), interrogative (yes/no questions), and imperative (orders). e results of an acoustic analysis and of perception tests are presented. Fundamental frequency and duration are both modi ed by the expression of emotions and sentence modes. Expressions of emotions mostly a ect the mean register, while sentence modes mostly a ect the shape of the intonation contour. e relative perceptual importance of audio and visual cues in the recognition of emotions and modes is discussed: audio cues carry less information than visual ones to recognize emotions, but more to recognize modes.
