17 p, 1.1 MB When the Easy Becomes Difficult : Factors Affecting the Acquisition of the English /iː/-/ɪ/ Contrast / Cebrian, Juli (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona.

The degree of similarity between the sounds of a speaker's first and second language (L1 and L2) is believed to determine the likelihood of accurate perception and production of the L2 sounds. This paper explores the relationship between cross-linguistic similarity and the perception and production of a subset of English vowels, including the highly productive /iː/-/ɪ/ contrast (as in "beat" vs. [...]

SP-ToBI (Beckman et al. , 2002) has been used to a large extent as a unique and consensual system in many Spanish intonation studies (Kimura 2006, Sahyang, Andruski, Casielles, Nathan & Work 2006, Velázquez 2006, etc. [...]

5 p, 944.6 KB Perceptual training affects L2 perception but not cross-linguistic similarity / Cebrian, Juli (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona) ; Carlet Foresti, Angelica (Universitat Internacional de Catalunya) ; Gorba, Celia (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona) ; Gavaldà Ferre, Nuria (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona) ; International Congress of Phonetic Sciences (19è: 2019: Melbourne)
L2 learners need to detect differences between native and target language sounds in order to categorize them, and thus perceive and produce them, accurately. The current high variability perceptual training study explored the effect of identification and discrimination training on the perceived similarity between Spanish and English vowels and on the ability to identify and discriminate target English sounds.

4 p, 176.3 KB Reciprocal measures of perceived similarity / Cebrian, Juli (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona)
This paper reports the results of two experiments aimed at assessing the perceived similarity between a set of English and Catalan vowels from the perspective of native speakers of both languages. Two groups of 27 listeners, a group of native English speakers and a group of native Catalan speakers, used a 9-point scale to rate the degree of similarity between two stimuli. [...]

This paper examines the relationship between perceived similarity between first language (L1) and second language (L2) vowels and discrimination of L2 vowel pairs in light of L2 speech models'predictions on L2 vowel discrimination. [...]
