Kriol is the main language spoken in Guinea-Bissau, a multilingual country where the only official language is Portuguese. This study is a first description of the intonation of Kriol, focusing on the intonational contour of statements and lists, using the Autosegmental-Metrical framework. Although there has been an increasing interest in the prosody of varieties of Portuguese, there is still a lot to investigate about the prosody of languages genetically related to the colonizer language, like Creole languages. The analysis was developed based on semi-spontaneous speech data collected via a Discourse Completion Task and a Story Telling Task. The results showed that the intonation of statements in Kriol consists of a sequence of high pitch accents (H* or !H*) associated with the heads of phonological phrases, in a stepwise fashion, ending with a falling or low nuclear contour (H+L* L% or L* L%). Furthermore, because Kriol is a tense-moodaspect system language, phonological phrases were mapped to only one prosodic word. List intonation was characterized by varying contours across and within speakers, with rising contours predominating (L(H)H%). Overall, differently from European Portuguese (EP), Kriol shows high tonal density in statement intonation, and, similarly to EP, weak macro-rhythm, given the low alternation of high and low tones.
