(1) Three male and 2 female subjects produced six repetitions of 12 utterances that were initiated and terminated by vowels and consonants of differing phonetic features.
(2) The research, performed on 80 Romanian-speaking aphasics showed that the frequency of various types of phonetic errors is quite different in various languages, as presented in aphasiologic references.
(3) Animals provide a model of auditory-level processing in the absence of phonetic-level processing, and test whether the existence of a phenomenon such as categorical perception necessitates specialized mechanisms.
(4) A novel approach to speech recognition, on the basis of a multidimensional multivalued phonetic-feature description of speech signals, is presented and evaluated.
(5) Phonetic distractors generated greater interference than semantic distractors at all delay levels, and semantic distractors generated greater interference than random distractors.
(6) Ss in phonological priming conditions systematically modified their responses on unrelated priming trials in perceptual identification, and they were slower and more errorful on unrelated trials in lexical decision than were Ss in phonetic priming conditions.
(7) The analysis includes a phonetic analysis, a substitution analysis, and a phonological process analysis.
(8) Single-word repetitions by 4 brain-damaged adults with apraxia of speech (AOS) but without concomitant aphasia were transcribed using a standard narrow phonetic transcription system.
(9) These differences increased systematically with the phonetic complexity of the task.
(10) In another experiment, interdependence of two phonetic judgments was found in responses based on the fricative noise and the vocalic formants of a fricative-vowel syllable.
(11) This is in contrast with the classical (British-English) phonetic tradition which allows the occurrence of two strong stresses within certain words, which are then called 'double-stressed'.
(12) Specific features of Delaire's operation when compared with Rosenthal's inferior pedicle pharyngoplasty are described, and phonetic results obtained in a recent series of 10 patients operated upon using the former procedure reported.
(13) Phonetic transcriptions of 48 babbling samples from 11 normally hearing subjects, aged 4-18 months, and 39 samples from 14 hearing-impaired (HI) subjects, aged 4-39 months, were analyzed to determine the inventory of consonantal phones for each recording session.
(14) It has been found that in senile dementia the multilevel and multiaspect functional system of speech is impaired at both, a lower, phonetic, and higher speech (a phonological analysis) levels.
(15) A standardized, phonetically selected text, seems to improve the discrimination power.
(16) The most frequent prosthetic complications were phonetic problems in the maxilla only (10 cases), acrylic fractures in bridges (3 cases) and fractures or distortion of the metallic framework (2 cases).
(17) Possible applications of the model are to the evolution of semantic alarm calls in vervet monkeys and the phonetic aspects of human language.
(18) Intelligibility was evaluated from phonetic transcriptions of the speech samples.
(19) To do this, sets of letter strings in which orthography and familiarity were factorially combined were used as the basis for physical, phonetic, semantic, and lexical judgments.
(20) A digital phonetic data base under current construction is outlined.
Phonetician
Definition:
(n.) One versed in phonetics; a phonetist.
Example Sentences:
(1) Clinical phoneticians and speech pathologists have increasingly felt the need for a transcription system that allows the symbolization of nonnormal articulations (i.e., those not found within the range of any normal language, and so missing from the IPA or other transcription systems).
(2) In this study some isolated vowels, most of them similar to vowels in standard French, were produced in ten random orders by an experienced phonetician.
(3) This accuracy is determined with respect to the perceptual moment of occurrence of a vowel onset as determined by a phonetician.
(4) This experiment has now been replicated using natural speech produced by a phonetician using two different overall settings of the vocal tract.
