For this purpose, four measures based on consonant-vowel pairs obtained from different phoneme speech recognizers are introduced and applied in two different segmentation-classification frameworks.
Importantly, alternatives are defined based on the consonant inventory of the target language, regardless of whether a particular replacement will yield an existing word.
Unrelated to any other extant tongue, and based on just eight consonants and three vowels, Pirahã has one of the simplest sound systems known.
It's a colourful, characterful app based on the key "CVC" (consonant-vowel-consonant) words that kids learn with phonics, helping them practise their skills at home.
Erroneous consonant replacements in CVC words were analyzed in terms of the probability of choosing a particular consonant based on acoustic-phonetic, lexical, and frequency variables.
Each number is assigned a consonant based on some kind of recognizable relationship between the two: 0 - z, s, soft c - "z" is the first letter of zero.
We methodically designed and developed a subjective intelligibility testing of Thai speech for initial consonants based on the diagnostic rhyme test (DRT).
These new findings modify our previous interpretation somewhat, in the sense that accuracy seemed not based on similarity alone: Stop consonants presented special problems as well.
In addition, the system separates non-sonorant consonants into three classes based on the spectral information (slope and peak location) of fricative consonants.
Syriac, being a Semitic language with emphasis on consonants, evolved several alphabets based on the Aramaic alphabet.
Atkinson looked at the phonemes from 504 languages across the world, using as his database the authoritative online World Atlas of Language Structures, which includes phonemes based on differences in the sounds of vowels, consonants, and spoken tones.
