Resum
This paper presents some of the preliminary work carried out at the fLexSem (Phonetics, Lexicology and Semantics) Laboratory of the Autonomous University of Barcelona, whose goal is to apply a particular theoretical linguistic model, namely the Meaning <=> Text Theory, to a variety of research integrating oral and written resources. After an introduction, we outline the main theoretical and methodological aspects involved in integrating prosody into MTT and propose some new terminology that we believe is necessary for this purpose. We then deal with the central issue of the paper, which is the role of prosodic elements within this linguistic model and their relationship with its various components. We also illustrate our proposals with several examples from different languages.
