Temporal and spectral properties of Madurese stops
Madurese is a language with a three-way laryngeal contrast and an unusual consonant-vowel cooccurrence restriction. We provide new data on the phonetic realisation of Madurese stops from a sample of 15 native speakers by examining VOT, f0 and two acoustic correlates of voice quality, H1*-H2* and H1*-A3*. Our data indicate that while f0 distinguishes voiced from voiceless (aspirated and unaspira...
متن کاملWhispery voiced nasal stops in rwanda
The paper describes the main phonetic characteristics (acoustic, aerodynamic and articulatory) of Kinyarwanda prenasalized stops, focussing on voiceless consonants. We conclude from instrumental observations that the phonetic description of these sounds should be redefined. Consonants previously described as voiceless prenasalized stops in Rwanda are in fact whispery voiced nasal stops. Finally...
متن کاملThe Phonetic Properties of Voiced Stops Descended from Nasals in Ditidaht∗
• The sound change spread as a result of areal contact, possibly originating in Lushootseed (Thompson and Thompson 1972:450-1). ∗Thank you very much to Melinda Fricke, Clara Cohen, Keith Johnson, and the members of the Pacific Northwest Languages Working Group for helpful comments on how to improve this work. Thank you also to the Ditidaht Elders for sharing their language and culture with me, ...
متن کاملPerception of the voiced-voiceless contrast in syllable-final stops.
A computer editing technique was used to remove varying amounts of voicing from the syllable-final closure intervals of naturally produced tokens of /p epsilon b, p epsilon d, p epsilon g, pag, pig, pug/. Vowels for all six syllables were approximately the same duration, and the final release bursts were retained. Identification results showed that voiceless responses tended to occur in relativ...
متن کاملFine-grained Phonetics and Acquisition of Greek Voiced Stops
We explore the acoustics of Greek voiced stops produced by 2and 3year-old Greek-acquiring children and compare them with adult patterns, in order to understand developmental universals in the mastery of phonation-type contrast. A truly voiced stop (i.e., one realized with voicing onset before the burst), is a difficult sound because the buildup of supralaryngeal air pressure during stop closure...
