Imitation of coarticulatory vowel nasality across words and time
We investigated phonetic imitation of coarticulatory vowel nasality using an adapted shadowing paradigm in which participants produced a printed word (target) after hearing a different word (prime). Two versions of primes with nasal codas were used: primes with a natural degree of vowel nasality and hypernasalised primes. The version of the prime participants heard varied, whether consistent wi...
متن کاملProsodic strengthening on consonantal nasality and its asymmetric coarticulatory influence on vowel nasalization in CVN# and #NVC in English
This study explores the relationship between prosodic strengthening and linguistic contrasts in English by examining temporal realization of nasals in CVN# and #NVC, and their coarticulatory influence on vowels. Results show that different sources of prosodic strengthening bring about different types of linguistic contrasts. Prominence increased N-duration ([nasality]) but the vowel’s [orality]...
متن کاملPerception and Acoustics of Vowel Nasality in Brazilian Portuguese
This study explores the relationship between identification, degree of nasality and vowel quality in oral, nasal and nasalized vowels in Brazilian Portuguese. Despite common belief that the language possesses contrastive nasal vowels, literature examination shows that nasal vowels may be followed by a nasal resonance, while nasalized vowels must be followed by a nasal consonant. It is argued th...
متن کاملNasal Coda and Vowel Nasality in Brazilian Portuguese
Despite different theoretical perspectives and methodologies, nasal vowels in Brazilian Portuguese are characterized by their variability. Such variability can be understood in terms of vowel height related to velum movement (Clumeck, 1976; Cagliari, 1977) or in terms of segmental right context (Almeida, 1976; Cagliari, 1977; Shosted, 2006; Lovatto, 2008; Medeiros et al., 2008). Brazilian Portu...
متن کاملThe aerodynamics of vowel nasality and nasalization in Brazilian Portuguese
Brazilian Portuguese (BP) is thought to possess contrastive nasal vowels that are different from contextually nasalized vowels in its phonological system. Aerodynamic data (nasal and oral airflow) of 11 native speakers show that interspeaker variability is important in this language with regard to the nasal airflow ratio of tautosyllabic nasal vowels (TNVs; campo [kɐ̃ pʊ] ‘field’) and heterosyll...
