Pronunciation of consonant clusters in Spanish speakers based on the Czech read speech corpora
Original language description
The purpose of this study was to determine which Czech consonant clusters are difficult to pronounce for Spanish speakers, and identify the sound changes that are more frequent due to the difference in syllable structure between these two languages. A set of 26 consonant clusters in initial, medial and final word positions was selected. The 75 words containing the target clusters were included in a coherent text written in Czech (838 words long). Then, the speech of 13 Spanish speakers reading this text was recorded. Based on perceptual analysis, 27% of clusters were pronounced incorrectly. The number of correct items among the cluster types and within the types varied considerably. Substitution, elision and prothesis represented almost 90% of all the sound changes. Substitution, being the most dominant, affected all studied consonant cluster types.
