in their study of the Swedish language: "With more anterior
place of articulation a higher percentage of individuals with prevoicing were found (/b/68%, /d/58% and /g/50.5%)." Inger Lundeborg Hammarstrom, M.
In Balochi, nasals with different
place of articulation exchange their places.
Another aspect that cannot be rule out while interpreting the current findings, is the possibility of listeners missing the use of co-productions involving the use of PF simultaneously produced with oral
place of articulation during ratings of the audio recordings.
This echoes understandings of postmodernist texts theorized by Ihab Hassan that undermine the possibility of truth in writing, and also implies that the place of the novel and its
place of articulation are meaningless--the topoi of Japan in the novel are then placeholders, interchangeable with any other.
Vowel articulation was also measured as a function of the preceding consonant context by measuring F1 and F2 only for vowels in labial (/p/ and /b/), alveolar (/t/ and /d/), and velar (/k/ and /g/) contexts and then calculating AVS for each context representing a
place of articulation. The fricative contexts were excluded from these analyses because their
place of articulation is not comparable to those of the plosive contexts.
It has been observed that VOT of stops is inversely proportional to the distance between the vocal folds and the
place of articulation. Long distance between the
place of articulation of stops and the vocal folds yields smaller VOT and short distance between them yields bigger VOT (Stevens Keyser and Kawasaki 1986).
VOT also varies with the variation in
place of articulation. It is longest for velar stops and shortest for alveolar with bilabial and dental in between.
According to our results, a difference in burst duration in the medial position concerns the velar
place of articulation only.
5 and 6 variation in manner of articulation and
place of articulation 5th variation in manner of articulation, 6th variation in
place of articulation are to be regarded as morphological categories for which phonologic and morphologic functions are inseparably bound to one another.
Linguistically, palatalization is a phonological process in which a sound takes on a palatal
place of articulation usually in assimilation to a neighboring palatal sound such as /i/ and /y/.
