Acoustic characteristics of clearly spoken English tense and lax vowels
International Congress of Phonetic Sciences, 2016 Clearly produced vowels exhibit longer duration and more extreme spectral properties than plain, conversational vowels. These features also characterize tense relative to lax vowels. This study explored the interaction of clear-speech and tensity effects

The influence of orthography on phonemic knowledge: An experimental investigation on German and Persian [PDF]
, 2019 This study investigated whether the phonological representation of a word is modulated by its orthographic representation in case of a mismatch between the two representations.

The origin of mid vowels in Siwi
Studies in African Linguistics, 2016 Recent documentation has established that the Siwi language of western Egypt, unlike most other Berber languages, has two phonemic mid vowels appearing not only in Arabic loanwords but also in inherited vocabulary: /e/ and /o/.

Vowel Vibrations and Vowel Production [PDF]
Nature, 1938 PROF. E. W. SCRIPTURE, in a letter published in NATURE of October 1, suggests that the profiles of the various vowel sounds—of which he gives examples—indicate that these sounds “cannot have been produced by resonance”.

Classification of Malaysian vowels using formant based features [PDF]
, 2008 Automatic speech recognition (ASR) has made great strides with the development of digital signal processing hardware and software, especially using English as the language of choice. Despite of all these advances, machines cannot match the performance of

Biomechanics and Evolution of the Primate Tongue. [PDF]
Evol AnthropolABSTRACT Primate tongue morphology and function are critical to understanding the evolution of feeding, swallowing, and vocalization. In this paper, we examine the primate tongue as a muscular hydrostat with regionally specialized neuromuscular compartments. We integrate anatomical, kinematic, and biomechanical modeling approaches to analyze how muscle

Covariation Among Vowel Height Effects on Acoustic Measures [PDF]
, 2011 Covariation among vowel height effects on vowel intrinsic fundamental frequency (IF0), voice onset time (VOT), and voiceless interval duration (VID) is analyzed to assess the plausibility of a common physiological mechanism underlying variation in these ...

, 2019 Vowel harmony refers to the phonological phenomenon that requires vowels in certain morphological or prosodic domains to agree in specific phonological features. This chapter presents a thorough revision of vowel harmony in southeastern peninsular Spanish, where the loss of some final consonants is compensated by opening the preceding vowel and the lax
