Extent of Lingual Coarticulation: A Crosslinguistic Study Using Ultrasound Imaging
Abstract: In the recent past, Ultrasound imaging has been used extensively as a tool to measure coarticulation. The extent of coarticulation is the magnitude of distance between tongues contours of adjacent phonemes that varies based on the articulatory dynamics of each phoneme. This lack of invariance is language-specific which is related to the articulatory constraint properties of a particular language. In this context, the present study aimed to analyse the magnitude …
