This study examined cross language perceptual assimilation and cross language categorical discrimination. Experiment 1 assessed the native Thai speakers’ ability to discriminate pairs of Korean stop consonants (plain, aspirated, reinforced) at three places of articulation (bilabial, alveolar, and velar). Experiment 2 assessed the perceived relation between the three classes of Korean stop consonants and the three classes of Thai stop consonants (voiced, voiceless unaspirated, voiceless aspirated).

Results of the categorical discrimination revealed that native Thai speakers were able to successfully discriminate pairs of Korean stop consonants and that there was no relationship between their perceptual assimilation patterns and their ability to discriminate Korean stop consonants. Since the main perc...
