Phonetic variability of the Spanish alveolar tap: spontaneous production and spoken word recognition
DownloadFall 2024
The present dissertation investigated the spontaneous production of the Spanish alveolar tap and how the variability typical of spontaneous speech impacts the process of spoken word recognition. Our corpus analyses found that intervocalic taps vary in duration and intensity due to speech rate and...

SSHRC Awarded IG 2014: How do humans recognize speech? How do factors such as native language, age, and dialect have an effect on the way in which spoken words are recognized? The present proposal seeks to investigate these and other questions regarding spoken language recognition by creating and...
