Why are repeated words produced with reduced durations? Evidence from inner speech and homophone production.
Acoustic reduction for repeated words could be the result of articulation and motor practice (Lam & Watson, 2014), facilitated production (Kahn & Arnold, 2015; Gahl et al., 2012), or audience design and shared common ground (Galati & Brennan, 2010). We sought to narrow down what kind of facilitation leads to repetition reduction. Repetition could, in principle, facilitate production on a concep...
متن کاملHow are words reduced in spontaneous speech?
Words are reduced in spontaneous speech. If reductions are constrained by functional (i.e., perception and production) constraints, they should not be arbitrary. This hypothesis was tested by examing the pronunciations of highto mid-frequency words in a Dutch and a German spontaneous speech corpus. In logistic-regression models the "reduction likelihood" of a phoneme was predicted by fixed-effe...
متن کاملModelling speech production – evidence from Swedish blends
This paper is concerned with a type of speech errors called blends and what they may tell us about speech processing. A blend is a contamination of elements from two different lexical items. Sometime during the process of retrieving a lexical item for output, two functionally synonymous items that compete for the same slot are fused and realised as one separate word or nonce word (Levelt 1989: ...
متن کاملWords with Intervening Neighbours in Infinite Coxeter Groups are Reduced
Consider a graph with vertex set S. A word in the alphabet S has the intervening neighbours property if any two occurrences of the same letter are separated by all its graph neighbours. For a Coxeter graph, words represent group elements. Speyer recently proved that words with the intervening neighbours property are irreducible if the group is infinite and irreducible. We present a new and shor...
متن کاملSpeech Production: The Force of Your Words
Research on speech production has traditionally focused on how acoustic goals are met. A recent study shows that talking also involves somatosensory goals that do not have any acoustic consequences.
