Abstract
The article analyses the role of the gender factor in the correlation between prosodic means and accentuating gestures. The research is based on the speech of 14 General American respondents engaged in cross-cultural discourse. The results of auditive, visual, acoustic, and comparative types of analysis reveal gender-specific features of the correlation under study. Singled out differences in the male and female styles of communicative behaviour emphasise the significance of the issue in question.
