A preliminary investigation of some acoustic characteristics of ejectives in Waima’a: VOT and closure duration [PDF]
, 2004 Waima’a is a little known language spoken in East Timor. From a typological perspective, its stop system is unusual for an Austronesian language: it has a fourway stop system which includes a set of voiceless ejectives.

Long‐term stability of sinus complication management
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Maxillary sinus augmentation shows a low incidence of complications and high clinical success due to favorable biological conditions and typically transient issues. Most complications are intraoperative, such as Schneiderian membrane perforation or hemorrhage, and are often resolved immediately.

Durational Evidence That Tokyo Japanese Vowel Devoicing Is Not Gradient Reduction
Frontiers in Psychology, 2019 A central question in the Japanese high vowel devoicing literature concerns whether vowels are devoiced through a categorical process or via gradient reduction. Examining how vowel height and consonantal voicing condition phrase-internal CV duration in a

Learning phonemic vowel length from naturalistic recordings of Japanese infant-directed speech. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 In Japanese, vowel duration can distinguish the meaning of words. In order for infants to learn this phonemic contrast using simple distributional analyses, there should be reliable differences in the duration of short and long vowels, and the frequency ...

The “center of gravity” and perceived vowel height [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1984 In oral vowels, perceived height is determined by the “center of gravity” of the spectral prominence in the vicinity of F1 rather than by F1 peak frequency [Chistovich and Lublinskaya, Hear. Res. 1, 185–95 (1979)]. The present study of nasal vowels assessed the generality of the center of gravity effect. Five nasal vowels,/ɪ̄ ē ǣ ā ō/, were synthesized.

Phonetic Effects in the Perception of VOT in a Prevoicing Language
Brain Sciences, 2022 Previous production studies have reported differential amounts of closure voicing in plosives depending on the location of the oral constriction (anterior vs. posterior), vocalic context (high vs. low vowels), and speaker sex.

Patterns of jaw coarticulatory direction and linguomandibular coordination in VCV sequences [PDF]
, 2013 Data on lingual movement, dorsopalatal contact and F2 frequency presented in previous papers of ours (Recasens, 2002; Recasens and Pallarès, 2001; Recasens, Pallarès and Fontdevila, 1997) suggest that the degree of articulatory constraint (DAC) model ...
