Contextual effects on vowel duration, closure duration, and the consonant/vowel ratio in speech production.
Acoustic measurements were conducted to determine the degree to which vowel duration, closure duration, and their ratio distinguish voicing of word-final stop consonants across variations in sentential and phonetic environments. Subjects read CVC test words containing three different vowels and ending in stops of three different places of articulation. The test words were produced either in non...
متن کاملEffects of ejective stops on preceding vowel duration.
One of the most widely studied observations in linguistic phonetics is that, all else being equal, vowels are longer before voiced than before voiceless obstruents. The causes of this phonetic generalization are, however, poorly understood and several competing explanations have been proposed. No studies have so far measured vowel duration before stops with yet another laryngeal feature: ejecti...
متن کاملDuration modification using glottal closure instants and vowel onset points
This paper proposes a method for duration (time scale) modification using Glottal Closure Instants (GCI, also known as instants of significant excitation) and Vowel Onset Points (VOP). In general, most of the time scale modification methods attempt to vary the duration of speech segments uniformly over all regions. But it is observed that consonant regions and transition regions between a conso...
متن کاملIs there any relation between Duration of breastfeeding and anemia?
Background In the early months of life, Breastfeeding increases chance of survival, reduces recovery time after disease and mortality due to infections such as diarrhea and acute respiratory infections. However, infants who are exclusively breast-fed for more than 6 months in developing countries may be at increased risk of anemia. Therefore, the aim of study was to assess the relatio...
متن کاملTonal effects on perceived vowel duration
Cross-linguistically, there is a tendency for vowel duration to be inversely related to the approximate average f0; all else being equal, vowels on low tones are longer than those on high tones, while vowels on rising tones are longer than those on falling tones. This type of interplay between tonal contrasts and duration are commonly reflected in the world’s languages. This paper reports a stu...
