Perception of syllable-initial and syllable-final nasals in English by Korean and Japanese speakers
In both Korean and E nglish, /m/ and /n/ contrast syllable-initially and /m/, /n/ and /N/ contrast syllable-finally. In Japanese, /m/ and /n/ contrast syllableinitially while nasals do not contrast syllable-finally. E xperiment 1 of this study investigated Korean and Japanese speakers’ perception of English nasals to examine how learners’ L1 influences the perception of L2 segments. The Japanes...
متن کاملPerception of English syllable-final consonants by Chinese speakers and Japanese speakers
This study investigates perception by Mandarin Chinese and Japanese native speakers of English consonants in syllable-final position, and the effect of vowel duration as a cue to voicing in syllablefinal stops. Two experiments were conducted in the study and the results revealed that Mandarin Chinese speakers performed better than Japanese speakers but the position of the consonant in the sylla...
متن کاملPerception of the voiced-voiceless contrast in syllable-final stops.
A computer editing technique was used to remove varying amounts of voicing from the syllable-final closure intervals of naturally produced tokens of /p epsilon b, p epsilon d, p epsilon g, pag, pig, pug/. Vowels for all six syllables were approximately the same duration, and the final release bursts were retained. Identification results showed that voiceless responses tended to occur in relativ...
متن کاملStop epenthesis at syllable boundaries
This paper investigates the production and perception of epenthetic stops at syllable boundaries in Dutch and compares the experimental data with lexical statistics for Dutch and English. This extends past work on epenthesis in coda position [1]. The current work is particularly informative regarding the question of phonotactic constraints’ influence on parsing of speech variability.
متن کاملThe role of the gross spectral shape as a perceptual cue to place articulation in initial stop consonants.
This series of studies explored the extent to which the gross shape of the onset spectrum is used by the listener for the identification of place of articulation in initial stop consonants. Synthetic stimuli were generated with onset frequencies appropriate to the syllables [ba bi du da di du] and with the gross shape of the onset spectrum manipulated to be appropriate for either alveolar conso...
