This study explored whether there exists an invariant acoustic property which can
distinguish dental from alveolar stop consonants. Experiment I investigated dental and …

This study explored the claim that invariant acoustic properties corresponding to phonetic
features generalize across languages. Experiment I examined whether the same invariant …

The research reported in this thesis has two distinct and integral parts. The first part is
directed towards the development of a highly interactive computer facility where controlled …

The two major cues for stop consonants, the burst of the stop release and the formant
transitions in the adjacent vowel, were investigated. Detailed energy density spectra of the …

Acoustic measurements of nonsense syllables in quiet and in noise were used to predict the
pattern of consonant confusions made under those conditions. Eleven sets of nonsense …

THE a detailed main acoustic object of analysis this article of Danish is to stops compare
with the the results results of of a detailed acoustic analysis of Danish stops with the results …

In a series of experiments, identification responses for place of articulation were obtained for
synthetic stop consonants in consonant–vowel syllables with different vowels. The acoustic …

The acoustic properties and perceptual characteristics of retroflex stop consonants were
explored to determine:(1) if there is an area of acoustic stability which defines the articulatory …

It has been argued by Stevens and Blumstein that the acoustic cues of stop consonant place
of articulation residing in the gross spectrum, sampled at the release burst onset, are …

Previous work showed that the Pattani Malay length distinction for all word-initial consonants
is audible for all categories, even voiceless plosives, and that relative closure-duration is a …
