Vowel-to-Vowel Coarticulation in Spanish Nonwords
Phonetica, 2019AbstractThe present study examined vowel-to-vowel (VV) coarticulation in backness affecting mid vowels /e/ and /o/ in 36 Spanish nonwords produced by 20 native speakers of Spanish, aged 19–50 years (mean = 30.7; SD = 8.2). Examination of second formant frequency showed substantial carryover coarticulation throughout the data set, while anticipatory ...

Does Vowel Inventory Density Affect Vowel-to-Vowel Coarticulation?
Language and Speech, 2012This study tests the output constraints hypothesis that languages with a crowded phonemic vowel space would allow less vowel-to-vowel coarticulation than languages with a sparser vowel space to avoid perceptual confusion. Mandarin has fewer vowel phonemes than Cantonese, but their allophonic vowel spaces are similarly crowded.

Abstract There is evidence that vocalic resonants (§10.3) were in some contexts vocalized with o, as in Arc.-Cyp. (§§26.3, 10.3): Boe. στρτεαω14 9, Sapph. βρχi(α) 74 b7. In Lesb. and Thess. clusters of resonant and *s(§23.6) or *y (§23.7) characteristically result in the gemination of the resonant, rather than compensatory lengthening of

Vowel-to-vowel coarticulation in Slavic languages
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1990Vowel-to-vowel coarticulation is the interaction of vowels across an intervening consonant. In general, consonants differ in how strong an interaction they permit; in particular, the presence of a secondary articulation on a consonant has been hypothesized to block vowel-to-vowel coarticulation.

Vowel-Vowel Production: The Distinctive Region Model (DRM) and Vowel Harmony
Phonetica, 1995Abstract According to the distinctive region model (DRM), sequencing one vowel to another involves one, two, or three commands or phonetic movements corresponding to specific deformations of the vocal tract. Criteria pertaining to communication theory require that these movements, or gestures, be of a small number, efficient (small ...

Mid-vowels and vowel harmony in Civili
South African Journal of African Languages, 2006This article highlights the phenomenon of vowel harmony in Civili. The distinctive features of vowels are determined in order to analyze the vowel harmony system, and later to explain the distinction between respective problematic vowels in the vowel system.

Vowel-to-vowel coarticulation in Catalan VCV sequences [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1984 Electropalatographic and acoustical data on vowel-to-vowel (V-to-V) coarticulatory effects were obtained for Catalan VCV sequences, with the consonants representing different degrees of tongue-dorsum contact (dorsopalatal approximant [j], alveolo-palatal nasal [ν], alveolo-palatal lateral [Y], and alveolar nasal [n]).

Vowel-specific effects in concurrent vowel identification
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1999An experiment investigated the effects of amplitude ratio (−35 to 35 dB in 10-dB steps) and fundamental frequency difference (0%, 3%, 6%, and 12%) on the identification of pairs of concurrent synthetic vowels. Vowels as weak as −25 dB relative to their competitor were easier to identify in the presence of a fundamental frequency difference (ΔF0 ...
