Sources of illusion in consonant cluster perception
Journal of Phonetics, 2012Abstract Previous studies have shown that listeners have difficulty discriminating between non-native CC sequences and licit alternatives (e.g. Japanese [ebzo]-[ebuzo], English [bnif]-[bənif]) ( Berent et al., 2007 , Dupoux et al., 1999 ). Some have argued that the difficulty in distinguishing these illicit–licit pairs is due to a “perceptual ...

The Confusion of English Consonant Clusters in Lipreading
Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, 1972Confusions in the lipreading of initial consonant clusters were investigated. Responses were obtained from 275 subjects asked to identify by lipreading 32 cluster-vowel nonsense syllables spoken by three different speakers. The results indicated that the consonant clusters were highly confused in lipreading, since they were incorrectly perceived 89% of

Language, 1954
Very few of the languages of the Tai family still preserve consonant clusters of the type pl-, kl-, pr-, kr- , etc. The two languages generally known to preserve such clusters, at least in part, are Siamese and Ahom, the latter an extinct language of Assam. The dialects of Wu-ming and Lung-an,

An electropalatographic study of stop consonant clusters
Speech Communication, 1993Abstract This is an electropalatographic investigation of coarticulation for heterosyllabic stop consonant clusters in American English and Catalan VCCV sequences. The heterorganic clusters under analysis were [tk], [kt], [tp], [pt], [kp], [pk].

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

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

Automatic classification of consonant clusters in French
Speech Communication, 1991Abstract This study describes a method for the automatic detection of two-consonant clusters in French. Four corpora were used, consisting of 603 different consonant clusters and single consonant combined with the 3 vowels /i, a, a/, in disyllabic and trisyllabic words. The CCV, VCC, CV and VC syllable structures were studied. Stimuli were recorded 5

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.
