The Effect of Stress and Speech Rate on Vowel Coarticulation in Catalan Vowel-Consonant-Vowel Sequences.
PURPOSE The goal of this study was to ascertain the effect of changes in stress and speech rate on vowel coarticulation in vowel-consonant-vowel sequences. METHOD Data on second formant coarticulatory effects as a function of changing /i/ versus /a/ were collected for five Catalan speakers' productions of vowel-consonant-vowel sequences with the fixed vowels /i/ and /a/ and consonants: the ap...
متن کاملEffects of consonant-conditioned informativity on vowel duration in Japanese
Research on English and other languages has shown that syllables and words that contain more information tend to be produced with longer duration (e.g. Aylett & Turk 2004). This research is evolving into a general thesis that speakers articulate linguistic units with more information more robustly. While this hypothesis seems plausible from the perspective of communicative efficiency, previous ...
متن کاملEffect of Prosody on Vowel-to-vowel Coarticulation in English
It has been claimed that segments are 'strongly' articulated in two prosodic positions: pitch-accented syllables [4, 5] and domaininitial positions [3, 6, 7, 9]. The current study examines the effect of these two prosodic conditions on resistance to vowel-to-vowel coarticulation, based on acoustic data. This study first shows that vowels are strongly articulated at the edges of prosodic domains...
متن کاملEffects of consonant cluster syllabification on vowel-to-vowel coarticulation in English
This paper investigates how different syllable affiliations of intervocalic /st/ cluster affect vowel-to-vowel coarticulation in English. Very few studies have examined the effect of syllable structure on vowel-to-vowel coarticulation. Previous studies show that onset and coda consonants differ acoustically, articulatorily, perceptually and typologically. Onsets are stronger, more stable, more ...
متن کاملThe Effect of Consonant Clusters on Vowel Duration in English
This study examines the effect of word-final consonant clusters on vowel duration in English. The duration of the high front lax vowel [,] was measured with respect to 64 different word-final consonant sequences of one, two, and three segments in length. A set of 960 [t,C(C)(C)] words were produced by three speakers and analysed. In accordance with previous studies, it was found that both voici...
