Structure in talker-specific phonetic realization: Covariation of stop consonant VOT in American English
Variation across talkers in the acoustic-phonetic realization of speech sounds is a pervasive property of spoken language. The present study provides evidence that variation across talkers in the realization of American English stop consonants is highly structured. Positive voice onset time (VOT) was examined for all six word-initial stop categories in isolated productions of CVC syllables and ...
متن کاملOn minimal realization of IF-languages: A categorical approach
he purpose of this work is to introduce and study the concept of minimal deterministic automaton with IF-outputs which realizes the given IF-language. Among two methods for construction of such automaton presented here, one is based on Myhill-Nerode's theory while the other is based on derivatives of the given IF-language. Meanwhile, the categories of deterministic automata with IF-outputs and ...
متن کاملVoice onset times for Turkish stop consonants
In this study, we aimed to determine the average VOT (voice onset time) values of the Turkish stop consonants by using 30 volunteers (15 female and 15 male). For this aim, we measured the VOT values of the six Turkish stops (i.e., /p/, /b/, /t/, /d/, /k/ and /g/), which were uttered by 30 subjects in three times, on wideband spectrograms. At the result of this study, the average VOT values of /...
متن کاملSex differences in voice onset time: a developmental study of phonetic context effects in British English.
Voice onset time (VOT) data for the plosives /p b t d k g/ in two vowel contexts (/i a/) for 5 groups of 46 boys and girls aged 5; 8 (5 years, 8 months) to 13;2 years were investigated to examine patterns of sex differences. Results indicated that there was some evidence of females displaying longer VOT values than the males. In addition, these were found to be most marked for the data of the 1...
متن کاملStructured variability in acoustic realization: a corpus study of voice onset time in American English stops
Talkers differ greatly in the acoustic realization of speech sounds, a source of signal variation that must be overcome by human and machine listeners. The present study examined talker variability in voice onset time (VOT) across the six word-initial stop consonant categories (/ptkbdg/) of American English. Employing a large corpus of productions from more than 100 speakers, we replicated prev...
