N2 - The present paper is a study of the intonation of English and Czech declarative and interrogative sentences. It presents the results of a comparative analysis of the occurrence of different pitch patterns in two English and two Czech dialogues. The prosodic interpretation of the material is based on a simplified version of the framework of the British contour analysis. Czech texts display a higher percentage of rising tones than English texts, especially in wh-questions and in non-terminal intonation units of declarative sentences.
