Acoustic phonetic properties of mid vowels in New Caledonian French
This paper investigates production of the mid vowels /e, ɛ, ø, œ, o, ɔ/ by four speakers of New Caledonian French (NCF). Formant and durational properties of these vowels are examined with respect to the type of syllable in which they occur. Results point to general adherence to the loi de position in NCF, such that the close-mid vowels occur in open syllables and the open-mid vowels occur in c...
متن کاملA first glimpse of mid back vowels in Girona Catalan
Mid back vowels [o] and [ɔ] appear to be merging in the Catalan spoken in the region of Girona.

The first results in this area show that our speakers present an almost complete merger of the mid back vowel pair, an...
متن کاملAssessing environmental impacts on stream water quality: deforestation in mid-Wales
A method for examining the impacts of disturbance on stream water quality based on paired catchment “control” and “response” water quality time series is described in relation to diagrams of cumulative flux and cumulative flux difference. The paper describes the equations used and illustrates the patterns expected for idealised flux changes followed by an application to stream water quality dat...
متن کاملFrench high-mid vowels are underspecified for height
Asymmetries in Mismatch Negativities (MMNs) have been reported as evidence for phonological underspecification in speech perception. In this study, we investigated whether predictions from Lahiri’s Featurally Underspecified Lexicon (FUL) model hold true in a language (French) and a contrast (vowel height) not investigated before, in contrast to predictions from a model with equipollent features...
