In this paper we report about our research towards the use of affect in language wherein we have attempted to formalise the affective functionality at word and grammatical level for a fraction of Dutch and English. These formalisations have been demonstrated in a pilot experiment. The empirical background of the formalisation, and the results of the experiment constitute the basis for further research on a lexical, grammatical implementation of affect.
