    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Adaptation; discrimination; categorical perception; Phonetics; Fonetik; Phonetics; fonetik;

    Sammanfattning : This study investigates perceptual effects of discharge rate adaptation in the auditory-nerve fibers.

  2. 12. Babble, grunts, and words : a study of phonetic shape and functional use in the beginnings of language

    Författare :Liselotte Roug-Hellichius; Florien J. Koopmansvan Beinum; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Phonetics; Fonetik; Phonetics; fonetik;

    Sammanfattning : The present study follows in the tradition of those seeking to understand linguistic behavior from a cognitive and socio-biological perspective (Bates, Benigni, Bretherton, Camaioni and Volterra 1979, Lindblom 1992, Hauser 1996) by tracing the development of a non-linguistic vocal behavior in relation to communicative and early lexical advances. More specifically the study focuses on the occurrence of what are termed ìcommunicative gruntsî and their functional relationship to adult based word use in one Swedish boy from 11 to 19 months of age.

  3. 13. Mother tongue - Phonetic Aspects of Infant-Directed Speech

    Författare :Ulla Sundberg; Anne Fernald; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; infant-directed speech; language acquisition; mother-infant interaction; Phonetics; Fonetik; Phonetics; fonetik;

    Sammanfattning : Phonetic aspects of mother-infant interaction are discussed in light of a functionalist Mother-infant phonetic interaction (MIPhI) model. Adults addressing infants typically use a speech style (infant-directed speech, IDS) characterized by, for instance, extensive suprasegmental (prosodic) modulations. LÄS MER

  4. 14. The priority of temporal aspects in L2-Swedish prosody : Studies in perception and production

    Författare :Bosse Thorén; Robert McAllister; Hartmut Traunmüller; Gösta Bruce; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Foreign accent; Basic prosody; Swedish; Stress; Quantity; Duration; Priority; Postvocalic consonant; Listener friendly; Phonetics; Fonetik; Phonetics; fonetik;

    Sammanfattning : Foreign accent can be everything from hardly detectable to rendering the second language speech unintelligible. It is assumed that certain aspects of a specific target language contribute more to making the foreign accented speech intelligible and listener friendly, than others. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Jahai, a language belonging to the Aslian branch of the Mon-Khmer language family, is spoken by a group of about 1,000 hunter-gatherers in the montane rainforests of northern Peninsular Malaysia. Drawing on linguistic data collected in the field, the present dissertation is a study of the grammar of Jahai. LÄS MER
