Monosyllabic, quasi-monosyllabic and disyllabic word lists have been constructed from Luganda language material. These lists readily afford a means for determining speech-hearing ability for Luganda-speaking subjects. The speech-audiometric curve obtained on normally hearing Luganda-speaking subjects with monosyllabic material has a form which is similar to that for the normal curve obtained with English monosyllabic word lists on English-speaking subjects. As indicated by previous authors, the form of the speech-audiometric curve is that of a cumulative distribution, making presentation of the data on arithmetical probability paper convenient. Since monosyllabic words are uncommon in the Luganda and other Bantu languages, it is considered that quasimonosyllabic lists might be preferred in clinical situations.
单音节、准单音节和双音节单词列表是根据卢干达语材料编制的。这些列表为确定讲卢干达语的受试者的言语听力能力提供了一种便捷的方法。使用单音节材料对听力正常的讲卢干达语的受试者进行言语测听得到的曲线形式，与使用英语单音节单词列表对讲英语的受试者进行测试得到的正常曲线形式相似。如先前作者所指出的，言语测听曲线的形式是累积分布，这使得在算术概率纸上呈现数据很方便。由于单音节词在卢干达语和其他班图语中并不常见，因此认为在临床情况下，准单音节列表可能更受青睐。
