An analysis of six characters from a Chinese television drama reveals socially meaningful patterns of variation in rhythm and final lengthening. Two measures of rhythm, the syllabic PVI and Varco∆S, reveal the three female characters to be more “stress-timed” than the three male characters; smoothing splines analysis, meanwhile, shows that the women do more lengthening of utterance-final syllab...

The past decade has witnessed an explosion of studies comparing speech rhythm across various language varieties, many using the Pairwise Variability Index (PVI, [6]). This renewal of interest in the cross-linguistic typology of prosodic rhythm has been accompanied by cautions that common acoustic measures of rhythm are highly variable between speakers ([5]). This paper introduces evidence tha...
