DOI: 10.1121/1.4987619
Abstract: Unreleased stops, lacking a burst, have been claimed to have low perceptibility and are more likely to neutralize place contrasts. While this proposition has been supported by examining no-burst VC fragments spliced from released stops,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0283139
Abstract: Many studies showed that prosodic cues such as f0, duration and intensity are used in focus marking cross-linguistically. Usually, on-focus words exhibit expansions of acoustic cues such as f0 expansion, whereas post-focus words may show… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/brainsci12070930
Abstract: In conversational speech, phones and entire syllables are often missing. This can make “he’s” and “he was” homophonous, realized for example as [ɨz]. Similarly, “you’re” and “you were” can both be realized as [jɚ], [ɨ],… read more here.
