Mismatches between the production and perception of Japanese pitch accent

本研究调查了东京日本音高口音是否有除了基频（=F0）以外的声学线索。使用数据库确定了最小对的最后重音和非重音的话，有相对较高的熟悉度评级。这两种类型的话并没有不同的可靠的频率完全元音清音或单词的持续时间的最后moras。一项感知研究，检查了声学相关的口音以外的FO和持续时间目前正在进行中。

This research investigated if Tokyo-Japanese pitch accent has an acoustic cue other than the fundamental frequency (=F0). Minimal pairs of final-accented and unaccented words that had relatively high familiarity ratings were identified using a database. The two types of words did not differ reliably in terms of the frequencies of the complete vowel devoicing or the durations of the word-final moras. A perception study that examines an acoustic correlate of accent other than the FO and duration is currently underway.
