Vowels are complex sounds with four to five spectral peaks known as formants. The frequencies of the two lowest formants, F1and F2, are sufficient for vowel discrimination.

Factors of Potential Forms of Creative Transformation in Urban Speech: Classification Approach
Under creative speaking grammatical and extra-linguistic factors are interplaying. Therefor classification of such processes is still relevant. Potential words as the system determined type of ad-hock creativity can be classified according to the grade ...

The Effect of Concomitant Septoplasty and Turbinate Surgery on Nasality‐Related Voice Parameters
ABSTRACT Introduction Our study aimed to reveal whether septoplasty and inferior turbinate reduction significantly impact the acoustic properties of nasalized syllables and alter subjective and objective voice parameters. Materials and Methods Forty patients with nasal septal deviation and bilateral grade 2 ≤ inferior turbinate hypertrophy who ...

On Short-Time Estimation of Vocal Tract Length from Formant Frequencies
Vocal tract length is highly variable across speakers and determines many aspects of the acoustic speech signal, making it an essential parameter to consider for explaining behavioral variability.

Sonorant spectra and coarticulation distinguish speakers with different dialects [PDF]
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of language varieties on the spectral distribution of stressed and unstressed sonorants (nasals /m, n/, lateral approximants /l/, and rhotics /r/) and on their coarticulatory effects on adjacent sounds.

Impact of prominence type on the coarticulation of vowels following palatalized consonants
The quantitative impact of prominence (neutral vs emphatic stress) on the coarticulation of the Russian low [æ], mid [e] and high [i] front vowels is evaluated in CV sequences with palatalized consonants of various places of obstruction.

Low frequency groans indicate larger and more dominant fallow deer (Dama dama) males. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Models of honest advertisement predict that sexually selected calls should signal male quality. In most vertebrates, high quality males have larger body sizes that determine higher social status and in turn higher reproductive success ...

Abstract This article explores the relations between organizational spatiality, gender and religion‐informed cultural practices. Theoretically grounded in Lefebvre's spatial theory and informed by Islamic feminism, it examines the significance of Islamic spatial modesty in (re)constructing and sustaining gender (in)equalities in financial institutions ...
