A temporal model of speech production

F Bell-Berti, K S Harris

    Phonetica
    |January 1, 1981
    PubMed
    Summary

    This study proposes a new speech production model where timing is a core component, not just a result of movements. This dynamic gesture approach better explains real speech patterns.

    Area of Science:

    • Linguistics
    • Speech Science
    • Motor Control

    Background:

    • Traditional speech production models often treat timing as secondary to articulatory events.
    • These models struggle to accurately represent the complexities observed in natural speech coarticulation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce a novel speech production model that integrates timing as a fundamental organizing parameter.
    • To reframe speech units as dynamic gestures rather than static configurations or commands.

    Main Methods:

    • Conceptual model development focusing on the intrinsic role of time in speech motor planning.
    • Theoretical analysis of speech gestures as dynamic entities within the proposed framework.

    Main Results:

    • The proposed model accounts for real speech observations that existing theories fail to explain.
    • It posits that speech units are inherently dynamic gestures, not static vocal tract states.

    Conclusions:

    • Timing is an integral, not byproduct, element of speech motor organization.
    • Viewing speech units as dynamic gestures offers a more accurate representation of speech production and coarticulation.
