Description This study investigates sound-personality symbolism, examining whether particular speech sounds are systematically associated with personality traits. It compares Czech and German native speakers and finds similar patterns across both groups, with the strongest associations for Emotionality and no significant effect for Extraversion. The study discusses whether these cross-linguistic similarities may reflect shared cognitive mechanisms underlying sound symbolism.
