A case study of Portuguese and English bilinguality
A case study of Portuguese and English bilinguality
The study of the acoustic characteristics of European Portuguese and British English fricatives as produced by two bilingual subjects, consisted of time and frequency analysis of words in a carrier sentence. Time-averaged power spectra were calculated and parameterised in order to aid comparisons across speaker, across corpus, and across language, and to gain insight into the production mechanisms underlying the language-specific variations.

Abstract
The study of the acoustic characteristics of European Portuguese and British English fricatives as produced by two bilingual subjects, consisted of time and frequency analysis of words in a carrier sentence. Time-averaged power spectra were calculated and parameterised in order to aid comparisons across speaker, across corpus, and across language, and to gain insight into the production mechanisms underlying the language-specific variations.
