This paper presents the results of a rate scaling speech production experiment which seeks to replicate and examine in greater detail the results of a set of experiments reported in Stetson (1951). Stetson observed, based on a set of pioneering articulatory experiments, that coda consonants resyllabify as onset consonants in syllables repeated at fast speech rates. In the current experiment, speakers produced repetitions of simple CV and VC syllables in time to a metronome pacer which systematically changed in period. Data indicate that, while durational patterns for CV and VC syllables are very different at slow rates, the patterns tend to converge at fast rates. However, closer examination of fast rate tokens, reveals that differences between CV and VC tokens persist at fast rates, even though such tokens are generally heard as CV tokens. These results are discussed with respect to the nature of CV and VC organization and the effect of the rate-changing task.
本文介绍了一项语速缩放言语产生实验的结果，该实验旨在更详细地复制并检验斯特森（1951年）所报告的一组实验结果。斯特森基于一系列开创性的发音实验观察到，在快速语速重复的音节中，韵尾辅音会重新音节化为起始辅音。在当前实验中，说话者随着节拍器节奏器的节拍及时重复简单的CV和VC音节，节拍器的周期会系统地变化。数据表明，虽然CV和VC音节在慢速时的时长模式非常不同，但这些模式在快速时趋于收敛。然而，对快速语速样本的仔细检查发现，CV和VC样本之间的差异在快速语速时仍然存在，尽管这些样本通常被听作CV样本。本文将结合CV和VC结构的性质以及语速变化任务的影响对这些结果进行讨论。
