“…Since our results are to a large extent congruent with results on weak clicks reported in the literature, i.e. negative pressure occurring in inter-speech intervals (Scobbie et al 2011, Wright 2011), in consonant sequences (Ohala 1995, Marchal 1987, Simpson 2007, Fuchs et al 2007), in vowel–consonant sequences (Silverman & Jun 1993), we grouped our findings accordingly: inter-speech intervals (breathing or silent pauses)consonant sequences (CC)sequences consisting of a vowel and a nasal, lateral or glide (CV or VC)single consonantssingle vowels Furthermore, single vowels and consonants have been added, although the former group is only marginal. For the latter we found instances of negative pressure that appeared within velar stops and palatal fricatives.…”

Phonemic clicks are geographically limited to the African continent, but non-phonemic clicks can also occur in languages spoken elsewhere. One of the phonetic peculiarities of clicks is that they involve negative intraoral pressure. The current study is a survey of instances of negative intraoral pressure excursions in German, a European language which is known to show instances of weak clicks in consonant sequences. Data of spontaneous speech in monologues and read passages from 14 female subjects are analysed. Our data provide evidence that negative pressure occurs frequently in speech production, in particular in pauses (between speech intervals), and in consonant sequences. Of particular interest is that clicks can also occur without an obvious dual closure in the vocal tract. Negative pressure in pauses occurs frequently with clicks (but not exclusively) which are aligned with the pressure minimum. We conclude that these aligned clicks are epiphenomenal and reflect the interaction of the respiratory and the laryngeal systems. In consonant sequences, clicks may be present more often with front-back consonant order than the reverse, but in both cases negative pressure can be found.

“…horses) or for addressing animals. Another type are socalled weak clicks which are non-intended sounds that come as a coarticulatory by-product [10,27,38] when consonants with a closure at the alveolar ridge are followed by a consonant with a velar closing gesture. The release of the alveolar closure followed by the release of the velar closure can lead to a click with a low intensity.…”

When analysing human spoken communication the focus on the linguistic side lies on speech with its verbal message, whereas the focus on the non-linguistic side usually is on the visually transported information such as gestures and facial expression. However, speech, especially in talk-in-interaction, also features numerous nonverbal vocalisations including various forms of laughter and inhalation noises as their most frequent forms. Although nonverbal vocalisations are usually short in duration they may provide rich information on linguistic, paralinguistic and extralinguistic levels including prosodic phrasing, cognitive load, affective state or speaker identity. The paper provides an overview of the phonetic and prosodic structure and the timing of laughter and audible breathing. Special attention is given on conversational speech, where we can frequently find situations in which interlocutors overlap temporally and on apical click sounds that often occur with inhalation before upcoming articulation but also during word-finding difficulties.

“…Kozhevnikov and Chistovich [1965] and Maddieson [1990] investigate me dial consonant clusters using nasal and oral airflow measurements, respectively. Marchai [1987] investigates consonant coproduction employing electropalatography. Relatedly, Nolan [1992] and Zsiga [1993] employ elec tropalatography to investigate coarticulation.…”

Aerodynamic Evidence for Articulatory Overlap in Korean

Aerodynamic evidence indicates the existence of overlapped labial//velar sequences in Korean. Oral pressure readings for [ipku] show a brief rarefaction in oral pressure during the consonantal sequence, indicating that tongue retraction during a front-back vowel sequence occurs simultaneously with full closures at the labial and velar places of articulation. This confluence of phenomena results in the observed pressure rarefaction due to expansion of the sealed oral cavity. Similarly, pressure readings for [upki] show a brief, marked increase during the consonantal sequence, indicating that tongue advancement during a back-front vowel sequence temporally overlaps with full closures at both the labial and velar places of articulation. This results in a pressure increase due to contraction of the sealed oral cavity. To our knowledge, the present study is the first to demonstrate consonant coproduction in terms of oral pressure, and to report on coarticulatory effects involving four sequenced segments.
