说日语的人经常在英语中难以发出复杂的音节开头和插入一个额外的元音。我们研究了日本人插入的元音是外音(音位)还是外音(音位)。声学数据表明,英语水平较低的日语使用者在插入元音时参与了L1语音过程,因为插入的元音与日语中的元音相似。另一方面,更高级的说话者的结果表明,语音学可能与之有关。该初步研究的发音数据支持了声学数据的发现,表明语音和音系都以复杂的方式影响日语说话者的元音插入。这篇论文是基于b[1]先前报道的工作。
Japanese speakers often face difficulty in producing complex syllable onsets in English and insert an extra vowel. We examined whether the vowel inserted by Japanese speakers was epenthetic (phonological) or excrescent (phonetic). The acoustic data suggested that an L1 phonological process was involved in vowel insertion by Japanese speakers with lower-level English competency, because the inserted vowels were similar to vowels in Japanese. More advanced speakers’ results, on the other hand, suggested that phonetics may be involved. The articulatory data from this pilot study with one speaker supported the findings of the acoustic data, suggesting that both phonetics and phonology affect Japanese speaker’s vowel insertion in a complex way. This paper is based on work previously reported in [1].
