| Abstract | To assess the role of silence as a cue for stop manner, we varied the silent closure interval between the stops in utterances of the form CVC1 //C2V and asked listeners to transcribe the utterances. At short closure intervals, the listeners generally did not report the syllable-final stops; only the syllable-initial stops were reported. At longer closure intervals both the initial and final stops were reported. However, the interval necessary to report the syllable-final stop varied as a function of place of articulation and as a function of whether the syllable-final and syllable-initial stops shared place of articulation. When place of articulation was shared, an extremely long closure interval was necessary. |
