DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The over-arching goal of this program of research is to understand how listeners recognize phonological variants of spoken words (e.g., [went, went]) as the words intended by the talker (e.g., [went]). Experimentation can be most productive and performed most knowledgeably with an accurate description (acoustic and phonological) of pronunciation variation in English. The aim of the present proposal is to make it possible to develop such descriptions by completing phonetic transcription of a 300,000-word corpus of conversational speech. When transcription is finished, not only will we use it for this purpose, but the corpus will be made available to researchers in the speech sciences. User-friendly software to analyze and search the corpus, along with a host of supporting material (instruction manuals, tutorials, user forum) will also be provided to facilitate and encourage its use.

描述（由申请人提供）：本研究项目的首要目标是了解听者如何识别口语单词的语音变体（例如，[去了，去了]）作为说话者想要表达的单词（例如，[去了]）。通过对英语发音变化的准确描述（声学和音韵学），实验是最有成效的，也是最明智的。本建议的目的是通过完成30万字的会话语音语料库的语音转录，使发展这种描述成为可能。转录完成后，我们不仅会将其用于此目的，而且语料库将提供给语音科学的研究人员。还将提供用户友好的软件来分析和搜索语料库，以及大量的辅助材料（说明手册、教程、用户论坛），以促进和鼓励对语料库的使用。
