Taehong Cho 교수의 연구실은 음성의 생리적 기반과 음운 구조의 상호작용을 중심으로, 프로소디(음성 강조, 문장 구조)가 발음의 물리적 실현 방식에 미치는 영향을 다룹니다. 주로 전자유도성형측정기(EMA)와 전기구개측정기(EPG)를 활용해 발화의 운동학적 특성과 시간적 조율을 분석하며, 특히 강조, 문장 경계, 형태소 경계 등에 따른 발음의 강화 및 공명의 변화를 연구합니다. 이는 음성의 기초 메커니즘을 이해하고 언어 간 비교 분석에 기여하는 학문적 기반을 제공합니다.

In this study the effects of accent and prosodic boundaries on the production of English vowels (/a,i/), by concurrently examining acoustic vowel formants and articulatory maxima of the tongue, jaw, and lips obtained with EMA (Electromagnetic Articulography) are investigated. The results demonstrate that prosodic strengthening (due to accent and/or prosodic boundaries) has differential effects depending on the source of prominence (in accented syllables versus at edges of prosodic domains; domai
This paper examines the effects of morpheme boundaries on intergestural timing, and demonstrates that low-level phonetic realization is influenced by morphological structure, i.e. compounding and affixation. It reports two experiments, one using electromagnetic midsagittal articulography (EMA) and one electropalatography (EPG), examining Korean data. The results of the EMA study show that intergestural timing is less variable for adjacent gestures across the word boundary inside a lexicalized co
Abstract Prosodic structure has been assumed to serve as a frame for articulation, so that phonetic shaping of abstract phonological representations is fine‐tuned as a function of the prosodic system of the language. The intricate relationship between phonetics and prosodic structure has been explored in the literature under the rubric of the phonetics–prosody interface. This paper reviews various aspects of the phonetics–prosody interface and discusses how prosodic structure modulates phonetic
In this special collection entitled <i>Marking 50 Years of Research on Voice Onset Time and the Voicing Contrast in the World's Languages</i>, we have compiled eleven studies investigating the voicing contrast in 19 languages. The collection provides extensive data obtained from 270 speakers across those languages, examining VOT and other acoustic, aerodynamic and articulatory measures. The languages studied may be divided into four groups: 'aspirating' languages with a two-way contrast (English

This study explores the relationship between prosodic strengthening and linguistic contrasts in English by examining temporal realization of nasals (N-duration) in CVN# and #NVC, and their coarticulatory influence on vowels (V-nasalization). Results show that different sources of prosodic strengthening bring about different types of linguistic contrasts. Prominence enhances the consonant׳s [nasality] as reflected in an elongation of N-duration, but it enhances the vowel׳s [orality] (rather than
