Voicing assimilation as a cue for cluster identification
It is well known now that speech chain is not constituted by discrete units. Speech sounds have an influence on other sounds directly in contact with them. We hypothesize that this influence is not noise but plays an important role for perception. An experiment is managed to evaluate the relative importance of two kinds of cues: those of phonetic distinctive features (voiced and unvoiced) and t...
متن کاملPhonological status, not voice onset time, determines the acoustic realization of onset f0 as a secondary voicing cue in Spanish and English
The covariation of onset f0 with voice onset time (VOT) was examined across and within phonological voicing categories in two languages, English and Spanish. The results showed a significant co-dependency between onset f0 and VOT across phonological voicing categories but not within categories, in both languages. Thus, English short lag and long lag VOT stops, which contrast phonologically, wer...
متن کاملBurst spectrum as a cue for the stop voicing contrast in American English.
Voicing contrasts in stop consonants are expressed by a constellation of acoustic cues. This study focused on a spectral cue present at burst onset in American English labial and coronal stops. Spectral shape was examined for word-initial, prevocalic stops of all three places of articulation in a laboratory production study and a large corpus of continuous read speech. Voiceless labial and coro...
متن کاملDuration as a secondary cue for perception of voicing and tone in shanghai Chinese
Previous studies have reported phonetic characteristics of the Shanghai Chinese phonological voicing contrast, which cooccurs with a tonal contrast. In stressed word-initial position, phonetic voicing is neutralized and replaced with a tonal register contrast: high ‘yin’ tones for (phonologically) voiceless and low ‘yang’ tones for voiced obstruents. Furthermore, breathy vs. modal voice quality...
متن کاملModulation frequency as a cue for auditory speed perception.
Unlike vision, the mechanisms underlying auditory motion perception are poorly understood. Here we describe an auditory motion illusion revealing a novel cue to auditory speed perception: the temporal frequency of amplitude modulation (AM-frequency), typical for rattling sounds. Naturally, corrugated objects sliding across each other generate rattling sounds whose AM-frequency tends to directly...
