Individual Variations and Gradience in English Palatalization

JH Sung - Canadian Acoustics, 2016 - jcaa.caa-aca.ca
Palatalization in many languages emerges as either a lexical process or a post-lexical
process, in which lexical palatalization is governed by language-specific phonological rules …

Constraints on variability in the voice onset time of L2 English stop consonants

ER Chodroff, M Baese-Berk - International Congress of Phonetic …, 2019 - pure.york.ac.uk
Non-native speech production is frequently characterized by its deviation from native
pronunciation. Among segments, previous work has largely focused on describing the …

Detecting palatalization in spontaneous spoken English

MEL Renwick, CN Cassidy - Proceedings of Meetings on Acoustics, 2015 - pubs.aip.org
In spoken English, word-final alveolar consonants may surface as postalveolar fricatives or
affricates when followed by/j/: miss you→[mɪʃju] this year→[ðɪʃjiɹ] would you→[wʊdʒəә] …

Why reduce? Phonological neighborhood density and phonetic reduction in spontaneous speech

S Gahl, Y Yao, K Johnson - Journal of memory and language, 2012 - Elsevier
Frequent or contextually predictable words are often phonetically reduced, ie shortened and
produced with articulatory undershoot. Explanations for phonetic reduction of predictable …

Variation in the speech signal as a window into the cognitive architecture of language production

A Bürki - Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2018 - Springer
The pronunciation of words is highly variable. This variation provides crucial information
about the cognitive architecture of the language production system. This review summarizes …

Oral and glottal gestures and acoustics of underlying/t/in English

SY Manuel, E Vatikiotis‐Bateson - … Journal of the Acoustical Society of …, 1988 - pubs.aip.org
In English, an underlying/t/can be produced in various ways. The glottal gestures may

DG Dunagan, MEL Renwick - Proceedings of Meetings on Acoustics, 2020 - pubs.aip.org
In the English process of palatalization, when the alveolar obstruents/t, d, s, z/occur before
the palatal glide/j/, they can become the palatoalveolar affricates and fricatives,/tS, dZ, S, Z …
