Our voices and speech behaviour give cues to the listener as to our identity. These cues make it possible for the listener to recognise a voice without seeing the speaker. A professional impersonator has to identify the salient and characteristic features of the target voice in order to succeed. The present phonetic study of a Swedish professional impersonator and one of his voice imitations compares the target voice, the voice imitation and the impersonator's own voice. The findings indicate that a successful impersonation is the result of the impersonator's ability to alter his voice in numerous ways.
我们的声音和言语行为向听众传达了有关我们身份的线索。这些线索使听众在未见说话者的情况下也能够识别声音。专业模仿者若想成功，必须识别目标声音的显著特征。目前一项针对一位瑞典专业模仿者及其一个声音模仿作品的语音研究，对目标声音、声音模仿作品以及模仿者自己的声音进行了比较。研究结果表明，成功的模仿是模仿者能够以多种方式改变自己声音的结果。
