Measurements of the Rhythm of Malay
نویسنده
چکیده
Acoustic measurements of the rhythm of Malay were made using a version the North Wind and the Sun passage translated into Malay, and these are compared with similar measurements for Standard Southern British English. The results suggest that Malay has more syllable-based rhythm than British English. However, caution is advisable in drawing this conclusion, as many of the decisions about syllabification and also some of the measurements of vowel duration are rather subjective, and furthermore it is possible that the PVI results are affected by speaking tempo.
