examined the role of prosody in this communicative context. For example, Anolli
et al. (2002) have shown indications that the acoustic cues that convey sarcasm are
different from those that convey positive, humorous forms of verbal irony (hence-
forth referred to as “humorous irony” or “humor” for brevity, although note that
humorous irony does not encompass all forms of humor). The goal of this study
was to advance the literature by investigating whether listeners can use prosody to
accurately recognize sarcasm and other commonly-expressed speaker attitudes in
their native language and in a completely foreign language. Details of our rationale
and approach are provided in what follows.
