This page is here for collaboration on Jonathan and Tristan's Big Phonetic Project. Research questions, plans for proceeding, progress, and results will all be posted here.
Contents
Research Questions
- What are the subjects' phonetic vowel spaces like?
Jonathan-specific
- What are [ə] and [ɨ] like in various environments (in open syllables, and closed syllables, closed syllables before labials, etc)?
- What is the vowel space like before /ɻ/ codas (does /Vɻ/ count as a nucleus, or a nucleus and a coda? i.e., does it count as a diphthong or not?)
Tristan-specific
- What is the vowel space like before /l/?
- What is /k/ like before each vowel? (i.e. is there a categorical distinction of front vs back /k/, or is it gradient?)
What needs to be done
Phonetic Vowel Space
- Things we want to know about each vowel:
- F1, F2, length, diphthongisation (F0, F3?)
- So we need to measure:
- length
- F1 at start
- F2 at start
- F1 at end
- F2 at end
