Multiple bursts in non-native and native English: Evidence from twelve L1s
Darío Barrera-Pardo
Abstract:Voiceless plosives are frequently produced with multiple bursts (MBs), a phenomenon that has substantial implications for voice onset time measurement (VOT) of these consonants.

Further, the potential effects of place of articulation (PoA), gende… Show more
