“…This is also consistent with a large body of work demonstrating that some aspects of coarticulation are pervasive and intrinsic to speech production and perception (Fowler & Saltzman, 1993;Goldstein & Fowler, 2003;Liberman, Cooper, Shankweiler & Studdert-Kennedy, 1967). However, Liu, Kawamoto, Payne, and Dorsey (2018) showed that some aspects of anticipatory coarticulation may be gradient in scope and degree, depending on the availability of information about an utterance, and speakers' approach to the task. Furthermore, in some circumstances, speech movements can be dissociated from higherlevel linguistic units: individual speech movements can be initiated before other movements involved in producing the same segment or syllable (Tilsen, Spincemaille, et al 2016), or halted before completion (Ladefoged, Silverstein, & Papçun, 1973;Tilsen & Goldstein, 2012).…”
