Abstract

This study presents the findings of an analysis of short front vowel (SFV) realisations in a corpus of unscripted conversational speech generated by 40 young speakers from Perth. As well as providing the first comparative account of SFV realisations in that location, we consider the extent to which the realisational variability observed is associated with properties of the continuous unscripted speech style that are known to influence spectral and temporal properties of vowels.
