| Abstract;The X-yay microbeam system is an articulatory measurement system that tracks and records the positions of metal markers that are attached to articulatory organs including the tongue and jaw. In this work, articulatory data obtained with this system were used to examine articulatory variations of alveolar consonants in Japanese and English. Alveolar consonants often show apical and laminal variations. These are generally thought to be individual variations, but they are also known as language-specific variations, for a distinction is made between English[t] and French[t]. This study investigates these subtypes of [t] as well as [s] in Japanese and English, and discusses possible causal factors. (author abst.) |
