Dear Stephan,
I agree with Martin regarding the importance of context. However, having stated that, you might have better luck in the field of psychology where the results of , for example, synonym tasks and other vocabulary tasks have been published.
Best wishes,

Dear All,
I am looking for a list of words (English or German) that were rated for the
emotion they convey (for example, a value like -.98 for an emotionally very
negative word such as 'death', or +.96 for a positive word such as 'love').
The words could be taken from any domain, and there are no constraints on
word class (noun, verb, adjective, etc.).
Eventually, I am planning to run a corresponding "norming study" by myself,
but I first wanted to be sure whether this has already been done by others.
I'd appeciate any hint where I could find such a data base.
Thank you,
Stephan
