Why does spontaneous speech in any language sound sodifferent from read speech? This book looks at someacoustic properties of sounds where this differenceis reflected. For this project, Spanish voicelessstops were studied in three different speaking modes:conversation, sentence reading and text reading, intwo native speakers from Spain. The four acousticcues observed were the duration of the closureportion of the stop; the duration of its Voice OnsetTime (VOT); the presence or absence of any voicingduring the closure portion and during the VOTportion; and the amplitude level of the burst. Theresults show that voiceless stops in any type ofspeech show similar coarticulatory influences. Butconversation mode, as opposed to the other twospeaking styles, has differences that are reflectedprincipally in two acoustic correlates, the burstportion of the stop (including VOT duration andamplitude) and the presence of some type of voicingwithin the closure.
