Abstract
It is often reported that in spontaneous discourse the laughing of interlocutors overlaps with each other. Although transcripts of interactional linguistics do consider features of overlap, the main prosodic information regarding pitch, intensity, duration and interactional timing of laughter so far remained untracked. This paper aims to show that acoustic-phonetic studies can help to unravel the prosodic characteristics of speaker-overlapping laughs. For this purpose the annotated laughs of four corpora of conversational speech were analysed. The inspection of several thousands of laughs reveals that overlapping laughs are significantly longer, with a higher intensity, a higher fundamental frequency and are more voiced than non-overlapping laughs. Moreover, the frequency of overlapping laughs seems to be determined by the number of participants. Finally, a closer analysis of the interactional timing in one dialogue corpus revealed that the scheme "speaker invites recipient to join in to laugh" occurs more often than "recipient laughs before speaker".
