Aspects of the word-final stop releasing and its phonetic correlates in reading the English isolated words enumerated

영어 나열형 고립 단어 읽기에서 어말 폐쇄음의 파열 양상 및 그 음성적 상관성

This experimental research shows that, in reading of the English isolated words that are enumerated, the releasing of the word-final stop is employed for signaling enumeration in company with the well-known intonational pattern for it. Furthermore, this study tries to find the conceivable phonetic correlates of the releasing of the stop in word-final position, focusing on the association of the stop releasing/nonreleasing with i) the POA (Place of Articulation) distinction of the word-final stop, ii) the various qualities of the preceding vowel placed before the final stop, and iii) the voice distinction of the stop in the word-final position.
