Rhythm, Timing and the Timing of RhythmAbstract
This article reviews the evidence for rhythmic categorization that has emerged on the basis of rhythm metrics, and argues that the metrics are unreliable predictors of rhythm which provide no more than a crude measure of timing. It is further argued that timing is distinct from rhythm and that equating them has led to circularity and a psych... ...

Articulatory Vowel Lengthening and Coordination at Phrasal JuncturesAbstract
Recent work has demonstrated that progressively stronger prosodic boundaries result in increasing amounts of lengthening for consonant gestures, both preceding and following the boundary. The present experiment extends these earlier findings by considering kinematic data collected with a magnetometer to determine (1) if vocalic gestures demo... ...

Acquisition of Serial Complexity in Speech Production: A Comparison of Phonetic and Phonological Approaches to First Word ProductionAbstract Comparison was made between performance-based and competence-based approaches to the understanding of first word production. The performance-related frame/content approach is representative of the biological/functional perspective of phonetics in seeking explanations based on motor, perceptual and cognitive aspects of speech actions. From this perspective, ... ...

The Pairwise Variability Index and Coexisting Rhythms in LanguageAbstract
The Pairwise Variability Index (PVI) has been widely used as a metric for quan-tifying rhythm in languages, often with a view to placing them on a continuum between notional categories of stress-timing and syllable-timing. We review the history of and rationale for the PVI, and point out three potential anomalies in the way the PVI has been ... ...

Effects of Morpheme Boundaries on Intergestural Timing: Evidence from KoreanAbstract This paper examines the effects of morpheme boundaries on intergestural timing, and demonstrates that low-level phonetic realization is influenced by morphological structure, i.e. compounding and affixation. It reports two experiments, one using electromagnetic midsagittal articulography (EMA) and one electropalatography (EPG), examining Korean data. The re... ...

Analysis of English Nonsense Syllable Recognition in NoiseAbstract English nonsense consonant-vowel-consonant syllables were presented at four different signal-to-noise ratios for recognition. Information theory methods are used to analyze the response data according to segment type and phonological feature, and are consistent with previous studies showing that the consonantal contrast of voicing is more robust than place ... ...

Temporal Organization of Articulatory Movements as a Multidimensional Phrasal StructureAbstract
Recently obtained data from X-ray microbeam experiments indicate inherently multidimensional articulatory phenomena with respect to temporal characteristics of speech. Elementary gestures in different articulatory dimensions for phonetic elements, typically representing demisyllabic transitions, constitute the content of a phrasal frame.

The Effect of Local Speaking Rate on the Perception of Quantity in EstonianAbstract
The Estonian language with its elaborate system of contrasts in quantity, whose essentials are described in the paper, is used to investigate human perception of distinctive contrasts in the duration of vowels, consonants and larger units. In the experiments reported, the speaking rate of a preceding or following syllable was manipulated in ... ...
