Contents:
1. An overview of the phonology of obstruents / T.A. Hall and Marzena Żygis -- 2. Turbulence and Phonology / John L. Ohala and Maria-Josep Solé -- 3. A phonetic approach to the phonology of v: a case study from Hungarian and Slovak / Zsuzsanna Bárkányi and Zoltán Kiss -- 4. The laryngeal characterization of Korean fricatives: acoustic and aerodynamic data / Hyunsoon Kim, Shinji Maeda, Kiyoshi Honda and Stephane Hans -- 5. Preaspiration as a correlate of word-final voice in Scottish English fricatives / Olga B. Gordeeva and James M. Scobbie -- 6. Phonetic characteristics of ejectives: samples from Caucasian languages / Sven Grawunder, Adrian Simpson, Madzhid Khalilov -- 7. Tongue body and tongue root shape differences in Nuu clicks correlate with phonotactic patterns / Amanda L. Miller -- 8. Do differences in male versus female /s/ reflect biological or sociophonetic factors? / Susanne Fuchs and Martine Toda -- 9. Producing turbulent speech sounds in the context of cleft palate / Fiona E. Gibbon and Alice Lee -- 10. Formant-cavity affiliation in sibilant fricatives / Martine Toda, Shinji Maeda and Kiyoshi Honda.
Summary: No sound class requires so much basic knowledge of phonology, acoustics, aerodynamics, and speech production as obstruents (turbulent sounds) do. This book is intended to bridge a gap by introducing the reader to the world of obstruents from a multidisciplinary perspective. It starts with a review of typological processes, continues with various contributions to the phonetics-phonology interface, explains the realization of specific turbulent sounds in endangered languages, and finishes with surveys of obstruents from a sociophonetic, physical and pathological perspective.
