Variation in voiced stop prenasalization in Greek
Ancient Greek clusters of nasal (N) plus voiceless unaspirated (T) or voiced stop (D), merged to ND in Middle Greek, yielding ND or D in different modern dialects. Impressionistic studies suggest that currently there is stylistic variation between D and ND in all dialects, with ND as the high variant. Our study reveals that age, not style, is the most important factor in ND/D variation, with sp...
متن کاملDiscrimination of voiced stop consonants based on auditory nerve discharges.
Previous studies of the neural representation of speech assumed some form of neural code, usually discharge rate or phase locking, for the representation. In the present study, responses to five synthesized CVC_CV (e.g., /dad_da/) utterances have been examined using information-theoretic distance measures [or Kullback-Leibler (KL) distance] that are independent of a priori assumptions about the...
متن کاملBrainstem encoding of voiced consonant--vowel stop syllables.
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study is to expand our understanding of how the human auditory brainstem encodes temporal and spectral acoustic cues in voiced stop consonant-vowel syllables. METHODS Auditory evoked potentials measuring activity from the brainstem of 22 normal learning children were recorded to the voiced stop consonant syllables [ga], [da], and [ba]. Spectrotemporal information...
متن کاملEstimation of Vocal Tract Shape during Stop Closures
The display of intensity, pitch, and vocal tract shape is considered to be helpful in speech training of the hearing impaired. Vocal tract shape estimation, based on LPC and other analysis techniques, works satisfactorily for vowels but generally fails during stop consonants due to very low signal energy. Our estimation of vocal tract shape is based on reflection coefficients obtained from LPC ...
متن کاملTemporal Effects of Preceding Band-Pass and Band-Stop Noise on the Recognition of Voiced Stops
A previous study showed that the scores on recognition of plosive-vowel syllables improve with noise preceding the speech, compared to noise gated on and off simultaneously with the signal [1]. To investigate this question further, the present study examined the influence of masker bandwidth, masker and signal spectral separation and masker level on the recognition scores of band-pass filtered ...
