Speech audiometry is a method for assessing the ability of the auditory system using speech sounds as stimuli. A list of phonemically balanced bisyllabic consonant-vowel-consonant-vowel (c-v-c-v) Malay words was produced. All the bisyllabic words (c-v-c-v) thought to be commonly used in everyday conversations were listed from the Dewan Bahasa dictionary and their suitability assessed. The chosen words were divided into 25 groups containing 10 words each. The list was then recorded by a professional male newscaster in a sound proof studio. A normal speech audiometry curve was obtained by testing 60 normal hearing subjects using the prerecorded speech material. The result of the study showed that the normal Malay speech audiometry curve was comparable to those of English and Arabic speech audiometry, in which it was sigmoidal with the optimum discrimination score of 40 dB and half peak level of 17.5 dB.
言语测听法是一种以语音为刺激来评估听觉系统能力的方法。编制了一份由音素平衡的双音节辅音 - 元音 - 辅音 - 元音（c - v - c - v）马来语单词组成的列表。从马来语词典中列出了所有被认为在日常对话中常用的双音节单词（c - v - c - v），并对其适用性进行了评估。所选单词被分成25组，每组包含10个单词。然后由一名专业男性新闻播音员在隔音工作室录制该列表。使用预先录制的语音材料对60名听力正常的受试者进行测试，得到了一条正常的言语测听曲线。研究结果表明，正常的马来语言语测听曲线与英语和阿拉伯语言语测听曲线相似，呈S形，最佳辨别分数为40分贝，半峰值水平为17.5分贝。
