Abstract:
A new modeling technique, two-dimensional self-modeling, was
applied in an analysis of sagittal-plane fleshpoint movement
patterns during dorm intervals from the words dorm, dormer, and
dormitory, spoken five times each by 12 American English talkers.
In general, results indicated that time-compressed tongue, lip,
and jaw movements in dormer and dormitory were significantly
different from those in dorm alone. Shape functions used to
represent these movements afford special insight into the
character of their differences.
