Clear speech encompasses many different styles, yet most work only compares clear and casual speech as a binary. Furthermore, the term “clear speech” is often <em>unclear</em> − despite variation in elicitation instructions across studies (e.g., speak clearly, imagine an L2-listener or someone with hearing loss, etc.), the generic term “clear speech” is used when interpreting results, under the tacit assumption that clear speech is monolithic. The current study examined the acoustics and intelligibility of casual speech and two clear styles (hard-of-hearing-directed and non-native-directed speech). We find: (1) the clear styles are acoustically distinct (non-native-directed speech is slower with lower mean intensity and f0); (2) the clear styles are perceptually distinct (only hard-of-hearing-directed speech enhances intelligibility); (3) no differences in intelligibility benefits are observed between L1 and L2-listeners. These results underscore the importance of considering the intended interlocutor in speaking style elicitation, leading to a discussion about the issues that arise when reference to “clear speech” lacks clarity. It is suggested that to be more <em>clear</em> about clear speech, greater caution should be taken when interpreting results about speaking style variation.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":51397,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Phonetics","volume":"104 ","pages":"Article 101328"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0095447024000342/pdfft?md5=bd035ba46dd9b5604519609b4fb5bf11&pid=1-s2.0-S0095447024000342-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140551802","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the traditional AM account separates a phonological model of the structure of the accents from the F0 algorithm that interprets the phonological specification, we propose a unified dynamical model that encompasses both. The proposed model is introduced incrementally, one dynamical term at a time, to arrive at the minimal model needed to account for observed empirical generalizations, avoiding unnecessary complexity. The quantitative and qualitative properties of the MAE system that inform the dynamical model are based on an analysis of a large database of productions of the four most well-studied pitch accents of American English: three rising accents (H*, L+H*, L*+H) and a low-falling accent (L*). The dynamic model highlights the importance of velocity-based measures of F0, not typically invoked in intonational research, as key to understanding F0 differences among pitch accent categories.

We conducted a sentence production task to investigate how control of pitch register – F0 ceiling, floor, and span – is influenced by utterance length. Specifically, we test whether speakers adjust register both in relation to an initially planned utterance length – <em>proactive</em> F0 control – and in response to changes in utterance length that occur after response onset – <em>reactive</em> F0 control. Target sentences in the experiment had one, two, or three subject noun phrases, which were cued with visual stimuli. An experimental manipulation was tested in which some visual stimuli were delayed until after participants initiated the utterance. Evidence for both proactive and reactive control of register was observed. Participants adopted a higher register ceiling and broader span in longer utterances.

The results of Experiment 1 show a benefit of long-term familiarity in discriminating minimal pairs with derhoticised /r/, a phonetically eroded form of postvocalic /r/ in working class Glaswegian. Native Glaswegian listeners displayed high sensitivity to difference (<em>d’</em>), and low response bias (<em>c</em>) towards hearing either rhotic or non-rhotic words, indicating accurate perception. Unfamiliar listeners were less sensitive to stimulus difference, and were biased towards hearing plain vowels, demonstrating their unfamiliarity with Glaswegian /r/. Non-rhotic English listeners with a moderate level of experience with Glaswegian showed an effect of ‘perceptual hypercorrection’, i.e. over-reporting /r/ presence. Experiment 2 found that, following a short period of exposure, English listeners with very little experience with Glaswegian also started to show hypercorrection, suggesting rapid adaptation to novel phonetic detail.

Specifically, first mention of a referent is more carefully articulated than subsequent mentions of the same referents, which are often phonetically reduced. Here we ask whether phonetic reduction for predictable information exists in a young sign language, and, in particular, how phonetic reduction is realized in visual languages that exploit various articulators of the body: the hands, the head, and the torso. The only natural languages that we can observe as they emerge in real time are young sign languages, and we focus on one of these in the current study: Israeli Sign Language (ISL). We use 3D motion-capture technology to measure phonetic reduction in signers of ISL by comparing the production of referring expressions synchronically, at different points during a narrative (e.g., Introduction, Reintroduction, Maintenance). Our findings show: (a) that phonetic reduction is present in a young sign language; and specifically (b) that the actions of different articulators involved in discourse are reduced, based on predictability.

Using an imitative speech production paradigm and AX discrimination task with L1 speakers of Mainstream American English (MAE) we test the extent to which each of 12 predicted tunes is distinct from the others in the production and perception of intonation. We tackle this question with a series of analytical methods. We use GAMM modeling of time-series F0 trajectories to test for differences among all of the twelve nuclear tunes, and compare these results to a method that does not rely on pre-defined tune categories, k-means clustering for time-series data, to discover emergent classes of tunes in a “bottom-up” fashion. We complement these time-series analyses with an analysis of the temporal tonal center of gravity (TCoG) over the F0 trajectories of nuclear tunes to assess tonal timing distinctions and their relation to top-down tune classes (defined by the AM model) and bottom-up classes (emergent from clustering). Production results are further compared to perceptual discrimination responses, which together point to a hierarchy of distinctions among nuclear tunes: a set of primary tune distinctions are emergent in clustering and always distinct in perception. Other tune distinctions, although evident in top-down analyses of (labeled) F0 trajectories, are lost in emergent clusters, limited in magnitude and scope, and often confused in perception. Results are discussed in terms of implications for a theory of intonational phonology.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":51397,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Phonetics","volume":"104 ","pages":"Article 101310"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0095447024000160/pdfft?md5=49424f67a5652d404f595fdd53d64c3b&pid=1-s2.0-S0095447024000160-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140113874","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
