Adults often encounter difficulty perceiving and processing sounds of a second language
(L2). In order to acquire word-meaning mappings, learners need to determine what the …

Studies of lexical tone learning generally focus on monosyllabic contexts, while reports of
phonetic learning benefits associated with input variability are based largely on experienced …

A robust contextual effect is well documented in native tone perception and production but
less well studied in non-native speech. The current study examined English-speaking …

In this study, we utilized a mixture random effects model and pairwise comparisons to
conduct our analysis. Furthermore, we employed visualization techniques, specifically line …

This study investigated the production of Mandarin disyllabic tones by Korean speakers. We
focused on disyllabic tones since it is disyllabic words that dominate the vocabulary in …

Previous studies on Mandarin tone production indicate that there is no agreement on which
tones are most difficult for L2 learners. Much of previous research on L2 learning of …

本研究探討粵語母語者對華語聲調的感知機制. 實驗一, 粵語母語者聽到華語聲調後辨識所聽到
的是哪個聲調. 實驗二, 評比所聽到的華語和粵語聲調配對的相似度. 研究發現 …

This study focused on the effect of tone training during the process of mandarin tones
learning by the learners of Chinese as a second language. Throughout the analysis of some …
