Abstract
This study, based on the source-filter theory of speech production and the feature breath-group [BG], deals with intonation contours of interrogative sentences in Polish. The analysis of 150 spectrograms indicates that questions in Polish fall into three categories in terms of their acoustic structure: yes–no questions corresponding to [+BG], alternative questions corresponding to [–BG], and wh- questions.
