Our previous vowel training study for Japanese learners of American English [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 117, 2401 (2005)] compared training for two vowel subsets: nine vowels covering the entire vowel space (9V condition); and the three more difficult vowels (3V condition). Trainees in 9V condition improved on all vowels, but their identification of the three more difficult vowels was lower than that of 3V trainees. Trainees in 3V condition improved identification of the trained three vowels but not the other vowels. In order to further explore more effective training protocols, the present study compared two groups of native Korean trainees using two different training orders for the two vowel subsets: 3V then 9V (3V‐9V); and 9V then 3V (9V‐3V). The groups were compared in terms of their performance on all nine vowels for pre‐, mid‐, and post‐test scores. Average test scores across the two groups were not different from each other. A closer examination indicated that group 3V‐9V did not improve on one of the th...
