Context: Crooks speak in hard, raspy tones. Clowns "smile" with their voices and losing football coaches "growl" with theirs. So, we now know voice has a big impact on how our messages are perceived. But, what is it about voice that makes the difference? What voice characteristics do we need to be aware of and how do we use them?

queixosos lamuriam
Achamos que anabc e Leonor têm razão, mas a forma é incorreta. O dicionário HarperCollins tem a palavra lamúria como "whining"

: Creio que por causa da forma da pergunta algumas pessoas (entre elas eu mesma) interpretaram "whine" como um subst. (complainers' whine) em vez de um verbo (complainers whine).// Claro que pode ser. Precisamente isso quis dizer - veja os parêntesis.
