This contribution discusses the iconic nature of prosody within the framework of linguosemiotic and functional-and-pragmatic approaches. It substantiates a theoretical background for the analysis of phonosemantic complexes as a combination of prosodic qualities that together with lexical means can create iconic relations of a meaning (semantics) and a form (prosody) in English emotional speech.
