Similarity scaling for consonants and consonant clusters in initial position
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1997Knowing the perceived similarity between different consonants and consonant clusters in different syllable positions is important for models of word recognition that involve activation of neighborhoods of similar-sounding words. Similarity data may also help in understanding whether clusters are single entities, or are decompositional. Furthermore, the

Frequency of Consonant Clusters
Language, 1955The psycholinguistic approach to certain linguistic phenomena is based on two general assumptions, which most structural linguists would probably accept but would probably consider irrelevant: first, that language as a form of learned behavior is subject to the general principles which govern all learned behavior; second, that to determine what these ...

American Speech, 1965
THE TABLES OF CONSONANT CLUSTERS displayed in the following pages are summations of many such compilations that have previously appeared. There is almost nothing new here. Nor has anything old been left out which is attested by its occurrence in a word which could not be rejected as a nonce word or dialectal in the European sense or obsolete or foreign

Temporal Aspects of Word Initial Single Consonants and Consonants in Clusters in Spanish
Phonetica, 2019Abstract We examined gestural coordination in C1C2 (C1 stop, C2 lateral or tap) word initial clusters using articulatory (electromagnetic articulometry) and acoustic data from six speakers of Standard Peninsular Spanish. We report on patterns of voice onset time (VOT), gestural plateau duration of C1, C2, and their overlap.

Saying consonant clusters quickly
Journal of Phonetics, 1996Abstract Articulatory variation as a function of speech rate is investigated experimentally. Specifically, two strategies for increasing rate are considered: shortening the duration of each component of a sequence and increasing the relative overlap of these components. Reduction in the magnitude of the articulations is also reported.

The Frequency of Consonant Clusters in Chontal
International Journal of American Linguistics, 19571. In a recent article1 it was suggested that a statistical analysis of the relative frequency of consonant clusters would reveal an 'other-than-chance' distribution. Specifically, it was hypothesized 'that the average frequency of a consonant cluster is a function of the difference between the phonemes in the cluster: low frequencies are expected for ...

Acoustic features of certain consonants and consonant clusters in Kabardian
Bulletin of the School of Oriental and African Studies, 1970Just as there are said to be ‘painters' painters’ and ‘poets' poets’, so too there may be said to be ‘linguists' languages’, and amongst these must without any question be included the languages of the Caucasus. These languages, with their elaborate and unusual phonetic, phonological, and morphological structures, possess a special fascination for ...

Frequency of Consonant Clusters in French
Canadian Journal of Linguistics/Revue canadienne de linguistique, 1956In a recent article in Language, Sol Saporta pointed out that structural linguists had, for the most part, analysed sequences of phonemes but had ignored the frequencies of combinations. He goes on to produce an interesting and workable hypothesis, i.e.
