Temporal properties of the nasals and nasalization in Cantonese
This paper is an investigation of the temporal properties of the nasals and vowel nasalization in Cantonese by analyzing synchronized nasal and oral airflows. The nasal airflow volume for the vowels in both oral and nasal contexts and for the syllable-final nasals Z,l+ ,m+ ,M\ were also obtained. Results show that (i) the vowel duration in the (C)VN syllables is negatively correlated with the d...
متن کاملVowel Nasalization and Nasal Loss in Italian
This paper examines pre-nasal consonant vowel nasalization and nasal consonant loss in Italian using airflow and acoustic waveform data. Speech material consists of Italian words containing VNC sequences where V = /i/ or /a/ and C=voiced and voiceless consonants with different manners and places of articulation. The results show that voiceless fricatives are most conducive to nasalization and n...
متن کاملAn Analysis of Sonorant Nasality in Beijing Mandarin
With the Nasometer, this paper studies the nasality contrast of liquid initials and the intrinsic nasality of seven cardinal vowels in Beijing Mandarin. The results show that the nasality contrast degree of initial consonants is high. The intrinsic nasality of vowels is closely related to the position of the tongue. The lower and more front the tongue is, the greater the degree of nasalization;...
متن کاملNasalization in Japanese Back-Channels bears Meaning
Many back-channels seem to be primarily sound-symbolic expressions, rather than fixed sequences of phonemes with arbitrarily associated meanings. The presence of a soundsymbolic meaning for one phonetic feature, nasalization, in back-channels in Japanese was investigated. Subjects were presented with tokens synthesized with and without nasalization and judged the differences in meaning for each...
متن کاملBreathy Nasals and /Nh/ Clusters in Bengali, Hindi, and Marathi
Previous work on breathiness in Indic languages has focused primarily on the acoustic properties of breathy (also known as aspirated) oral stops in languages like Hindi ([baːl] ‘hair’ vs. [bɦaːl] ‘forehead’) or Bengali ([bati] ‘bowl’ vs. [bɦati] ‘kiln’). However, breathiness in some Indic languages also extends to nasals, as in Marathi ([maːr] ‘beat’ vs. [m ̤ ̤ ̤ ̤aːr] ‘a caste’). It is not clear i...
