This paper describes phonetically the melodic contours of three directive speech acts (order, request and supplication) in Brazilian Portuguese and in Mexican Spanish variety. Therefore, an acted speech corpus was used, selecting utterances with the intonation of the three directive acts in each language. Perceptual tests were taken to recognize the speaker’s intention as well as to legitimize his performance. Furthermore, an acoustic analysis was developed to characterize the intonational pattern of each act. The results suggest that intonation may be one of the mechanisms for distinguishing the three types of directive speech acts, due to intonational differences in the production of each act in both languages.Este artigo descreve...
