Experiment. A number of detailed prosody rules for expressing different emotions in German synthesised speech were determined in perception tests. In a first step, relevant variables were systematically varied in a factorial design, without assumptions about the correct settings for a given emotion. The values found optimal in this step were then combined with different combinations of additional parameters, different for different emotions. Prosody rules are reported in detail.
