    Abstract: A number of studies have shown that /r/ production in American English involves complex tongue shapes. Previous 3D imaging studies, however, have been limited to sustained (static) /r/ sounds produced in supine position. Since supine versus upright posture and static versus dynamic speech production influences the shape of the tongue, it is unclear to what degree previous findings of three-dimensional tongue shapes are generalizable to /r/ sounds produced dynamically and with upright posture. This study presents upright-posture 3D tongue shapes of dynamically produced /r/ sounds from words embedded in a carrier phrase. Twenty young adult native speakers of American English participated in the study (10 males and 10 females), and analyses are ongoing.

    Abstract: This paper reports on a three-dimensional/four-dimensional ultrasound investigation of American English laterals. Traditional descriptions of English distinguish between pre-vocalic (onset) laterals (‘light-l’), said to involve a coronal gesture creating an alveolar occlusion on the center line with lateral venting, and post-vocalic (coda) laterals (‘dark-l’), said to involve both the coronal gesture and an additional dorsal constriction gesture. Recent work suggests that this view of laterals may be overly simple: e.g., onset laterals in American English may also have a dorsal gesture [Rhodes et al., JASA137(4), 2268–2269 (2015)]. Previous work also noted a persistent tongue configuration involving deep cupping of the midline in the palatal region yielding a raised tongue tip and dorsum around the cupped region. This configuration appears in both onsets and codas, even for a speaker who exhibited no coronal contact [Berkson et al., ICASSP (2017), pp. 5080–5084] . This study presents configurations for 20 college-aged native speakers of English (10 female) who show individual differences in (i) the presence of palatal grooving and (ii) consistency between onset and coda configurations. We contend that the onset versus coda lateral distinction cannot be reduced to a single description in terms of lingual configuration.

    Abstract: A procedure for carrying out Principal Components Analyses of three-dimensional tongue surfaces segmented from 3D/4D volumetric ultrasound images is presented. The segmented surface is transformed to a spherical coordinate system with the origin defined at the anterior visible extreme of the tendon of the genioglossus (near the mandibular symphysis). Principal Components Analyses of tongue surface shapes for monosyllabic real words carried out in this spherical coordinate system are robust to variations in the location of the origin, and show similarities across speakers, based on a corpus of 10 speakers.

    Abstract: Previous, mostly impressionistic, examinations of Arabic varieties provide varied descriptions of the dorsal fricative /χ/ place of articulation, ranging from velar to uvular. While some descriptions attribute this variation to dialectal differences, descriptions of the same dialect also vary. 3D ultrasound data were collected from six native speakers of different dialects of Arabic, one each from Syria, Palestine, Faifi (in Saudi Arabia), Egypt, Algeria, and Morocco. Apart from the dorsal fricatives, the corpus included productions of palatal, pharyngeal, and contrasting velar and uvular stops to provide comparative standards for various points of articulation. The Syrian, speaker showed very similar articulations for /χ/ with uvular stops, while the other speakers variably showed a more anterior articulation between the velar and uvular stops. The most anterior articulations were apparent in the Moroccan and Algerian speakers, giving some suggestion of a dialectal difference; however, point of articulation of the dorsal fricative was variable for most of the speakers and not obviously restricted by dialect. The effect of these articulatory observations on the acoustic noise spectra are ongoing.

    Abstract: Vowel systems in West African languages are often noted for using the position of the tongue root (TR) to contrast vowels throughout the vowel space. E.g. X-ray studies of Igbo show that pairs of vowels such as /i/ and /ɪ/ contrast with regards to tongue root position. A similar study of Akan shows that vowel height also gets incorporated into the contrast (Ladefoged and Maddieson 1990). While many languages are noted for having TR contrasts, imaging data are available for only a small subset. Gua, a Kwa language from the Niger Congo family spoken in coastal Ghana (Simons and Fennig 2017, Yeboah-Obiri 2013), is a critically under-documented language which contains TR contrasts in all high and mid vowels (Advanced TR: /i e o u/; Retracted TR: /ɪ ɛ a ɔ ʊ/). Acoustic analysis and articulatory data from 3D ultrasound recordings reveal that RTR vowels show a variety of deformations of the tongue surface, depending on the vowel. However, these deformations are linked by the mechanics of tongue root retraction. Also, images reveal that differences in tongue height in addition to TR advancement are often present.

    Abstract: Phonological feature structure is inherently multidimensional, and decades' worth of research in acoustic phonetics has documented both the complex mappings between features and associated acoustic cues as well as the prosodic modulation of these mappings. Most previous studies have focused on how the mean values of acoustic cues vary in complex ways across multiple phonological dimensions, relying on strong assumptions of statistical independence and/or homogeneity of variance across acoustic measures. The present study probes these assumptions by exploring the mapping between phonological voicing, place, and manner features and 8 acoustic cues from tokens of 14 English consonants produced in onset and coda position. Multivariate linear models exhibiting a variety of feature-cue mappings and between-cue statistical relationships were fit to this corpus of acoustic data. Model comparisons indicate that the best statistical description of the data requires pervasive interactions between features with respect to both the locations and the shapes of phonological categories. The implications of these results for work on the production and perception of phonological contrasts is discussed.

    Abstract: Speech sound articulation is typically characterized in the mid-sagittal plane. However, lateral segments, such as the /l/ category in most varieties of English, are usually identified in introductory phonetics courses as exceptions to this rule. On the other hand, many productions of post-vocalic /l/ in varieties spoken in the lower Mid-west U.S. are noted as being non-lateral, involving only a dorsal articulation very different from the canonical coronal occlusion. Furthermore, a large body of literature indicates multi-constriction articulations, which vary by syllable position, for liquids like American English /l/ and /r/. This research presents results from a study of constriction location and laterality in pre- and post-vocalic /l/ and /r/ using real-time 3D ultrasound images of tongue motion, digitized impressions of the palate, and time-aligned acoustic signals.

    Abstract: This paper explores how a speaker normalization routine can result in co-mingling effects of dialectal and stylistic variation. To this end, the paper examines a database of vowel formants in a passage and a wordlist task collected from 88 monolingual American English speakers in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula; this corpus is further stratified by ethnic-heritage, age, sex and educational attainment. Two different speaker normalization routines, Lobanov (Adank et al., 2004) and Labov ANAE (Labov et al., 2006), were used; however, each routine yielded differences in a paralleled analysis. The Lobanov normalization routine removes much of the ethnic-heritage effect that appears in the analysis using the Labov ANAE normalization routine. Examining the cause of these different results reveals that 1) the Lobanov routine removes any mean shifts in formant values that run orthogonal to anatomical variation (i.e., vocal tract length effects) and 2) the ANAE routine only removes shifts which are correlated across formants. The ethnic-heritage effect in this dataset involves mean shifts that are negatively correlated to typical anatomical variation, which results in the ANAE routine potentially amplifying such effects. We discuss the import of these findings for vowel space variation and language change.
