Journal Title: Записки з романо-германської філології - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue
Abstract
This work is dedicated to the analysis of verbal (terminal tones, scales, speech rate) and nonverbal (movement of hands, eyebrows lifting, eye movement) means, that transmit emotional state of the British chef Lesley Waters while presenting the recipe. The research has been done on the basis of samples of quasi spontaneous monologic statements of British chef Lesley Waters when presenting “Vanilla fruit strudel” recipe. The objectives of the study included identification of the set of tones and scales that make up the main melodic repertoire of the respondent, and determination of kinetic means in the investigated phrases of the chef. The subject of the research is gender-based verbal behavior of the British chef. The main objective of the study is to determine the specificity of gender non-verbal and verbal behavior of chefs. Conducted perceptual research has shown that the informant is very emotional, which is reflected in the use of emphatic tones and scales, fast speech rate and usage of short pauses. The prospective of the research is primarily determined by the need to analyze prosodic characteristics (melody, rate) of British chefs’ speech, as the problem is not widely studied and requires research in connection with non-verbal characteristics of chefs’ speech behavior.
