Voice onset time in Spanish-English spontaneous code-switching
Research on the phonetics of code-switching has focused on voice onset time (VOT) and has yielded mixed results regarding cross-language interaction, possibly due to differences in data used (scripted vs. spontaneous speech) and populations examined (L1 vs. L2 dominant, early vs. late bilinguals). Here VOT was measured in a corpus of spontaneous code-switching speech elicited from a homogeneous...
متن کاملDiscrimination of voice onset time in infancy.
In an effort to determine whether infants can discriminate speech sounds on the basis of a single acoustic cue, timing onset of periodic voicing, two experiments were conducted employing synthetic speech sounds. Naturally produced syllable pairs were also used for comparison. In the first experiment infants evidenced discrimination of a naturally produced /ba/ versus /pa/ pair and a naturally /...
متن کاملTrajectories of voice onset time in spontaneous speech on reality TV
Do speakers’ accents change from day to day? This paper examines this question through the lens of voice onset time (VOT). We examine whether VOT within individual speakers shows time dependence—daily fluctuations, longer-term time trends, or both—by examining spontaneous speech from 11 English speakers on three months of the reality TV show Big Brother UK. We build statistical models of time d...
متن کاملAutomatic discriminative measurement of voice onset time
We describe a discriminative algorithm for automatic VOT measurement, considered as an application of predicting structured output from speech. In contrast to previous studies which use customized rules, in our approach a function is trained on manually labeled examples, using an online algorithm to predict the burst and voicing onsets (and hence VOT). The feature set used is customized for det...
متن کاملTonal Effects on Voice Onset Time
This study examines the influence of lexical tone on voice onset time (VOT) in Mandarin and Hakka spoken in Taiwan. The examination of VOT values for Mandarin and Hakka word-initial stops /p, t, k, p, t, k/ followed by three vowels /i, u, a/ in different lexical tones revealed that lexical tone has significant influence on the VOT values for stops. The results are important as they suggest that...
