Unpacking the research process: Investigating syllable‐timing in new Zealand English
Language Awareness, 1997Doing research is one important means of increasing understanding of language issues and developing metalinguistic awareness, from which students of language and linguistics, and language learners can benefit. Published papers generally present the process of investigating language as a neat, logical progression from an initial research question to a ...

Can stress-timing and syllable-timing be perceived?
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2010The listeners’ ability to classify languages as stress- or syllable-timed was indirectly tested in two experiments. In the first, American, Greek, and Korean listeners rated low-pass filtered utterances of English, German, Greek, Italian, Korean, and Spanish for similarity to a series of non-speech trochees, using a 7-point scale.

Using syllable-timed speech to treat preschool children who stutter: A multiple baseline experiment
Journal of Fluency Disorders, 2009This report presents the results of an experimental investigation of the effects of a syllable-timed speech treatment on three stuttering preschool children. Syllable-timed speech involves speaking with minimal differentiation in linguistic stress across syllables.

‘Prenasalised consonants’ and syllable timing: evidence from Runyambo and Luganda
Phonology, 1995An interesting feature of many Bantu languages is the presence of what have been called ‘prenasalised consonants’-these are typically sounds that might be interpreted as a sequence of nasal + stop, but which behave in many respects like single segments:

Acoustic comparison on syllabic rates between stress-timed and syllable-timed language speakers
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2017Syllabic rates (i.e., phonation rate for each syllable) of a speaker provide us with a lot of interesting information about the language in question. Especially between syllable-timed language and stress-timed language, we may expect that speakers will show a gap in syllabic rates as they have their own ways to pronounce.

Treating Stuttering in a Preschool Child With Syllable Timed Speech: A Case Report
Behaviour Change, 2006AbstractIn this article we report the use of a simple, nonprogrammed, syllable timed speech procedure to treat stuttering in a 3-year-old boy with a 2-year history of stuttering. The treatment involved the boy and his parents visiting the clinic 7 times, and the parents modelling syllable timed speech 2 to 6 times per day for 5- to 10-minute intervals ...

Automatic Syllabification and Syllable Timing of Automatically Recognized Speech – for Czech
2016Our recent work was focused on automatic speech recognition (ASR) of spoken word archive documents [6, 7]. One of the important tasks was to structuralize the recognized document (to segment the document and to detect sentence boundaries). Prosodic features play significant role in the spoken document structuralization.

The effects of syllable-timed speech on stuttering behavior: An audiovisual analysis
Behavior Therapy, 1977The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a program of syllable-timed speech production on kernel and accessory features of stuttering. Five adult stutterers participated in a 1-month program of metronome conditioning. Videotapes were made to monitor changes in speech behavior. All stutterers demonstrated a reduction in stuttering and
