초록

This paper compares the acoustic durations of English nasals produced by English and Korean speakers. The comparison revealed the effects of the position within a word, the place of articulation, and stress on the acoustic duration of English nasals in the data from both native speakers of English and Korean learners of English. Notably, English nasals produced by the Korean subjects were not influenced in duration by word-length while those by native English speakers were affected in all three positions: the shorter the word, the longer the nasals. English nasals produced by English subjects showed greater durational variation due to the position of the stress than those produced by Korean subjects. The word-intial nasals produced by English subjects were longer than the word-medial nasals while the word-initial nasals by Korean subjects were shorter than or as long as the word-medial ones.

Abstract

This paper compares the acoustic durations of English nasals produced by English and Korean speakers. The comparison revealed the effects of the position within a word, the place of articulation, and stress on the acoustic duration of English nasals in the data from both native speakers of English and Korean learners of English. Notably, English nasals produced by the Korean subjects were not influenced in duration by word-length while those by native English speakers were affected in all three positions: the shorter the word, the longer the nasals. English nasals produced by English subjects showed greater durational variation due to the position of the stress than those produced by Korean subjects. The word-intial nasals produced by English subjects were longer than the word-medial nasals while the word-initial nasals by Korean subjects were shorter than or as long as the word-medial ones.
