Morphological effects in Estonian spontaneous speech
This study investigates the role of morphological structure and paradigmatic information in the perception of Estonian inflected forms in spontaneous speech. Using a large-scale online word-typing task, we examine how segment deletion in the base or suffix, realized inflectional paradigm size, and whole-word frequency affect typing accuracy, speed, and duration. Our results indicate that reduced words are more difficult and take longer to identif…

Exploring pitch and length perception
This research offers valuable insights into the developmental trajectory of the MMR, suggesting that it may not be a straightforward progression from positive to negative. Further, it advances both clinical understanding and cross-linguistic research in developmental language disorder
Prosodic phrasing of the parenthetical palun ‘please’ in Estonian requests
This study investigates the prosody of the Estonian parenthetical palun ‘please’ in imperative requests. The occurrence of prosodic phrase boundary cues such as pauses, pre-boundary lengthening, and creaky voice as well as pitch characteristics and accentuation are analysed. The analysis is based on 753 utterances, where palun appears in three different positions: initial, medial or final. The requests were elicited using context descriptions fro…
The perception and production of Estonian vowels and vocalic quantity contrasts by Spanish L1 learners
Spanish learners do not distinguish Estonian/ø/and/ɤ/. • Instead of the ternary quantity opposition Spanish learners use a binary distinction. • Spanish learners do not use F0 to signal an overlong quantity degree
Paradigmatic and Syntagmatic Effects in Estonian Spontaneous Speech
Recent evidence indicates that a word’s paradigmatic neighbors affect production. However, these findings have mostly been obtained in careful laboratory settings using words in isolation, and thus ignoring potential effects that may arise from the syntagmatic context, which is typically present in spontaneous speech. The current corpus analysis investigates paradigmatic and syntagmatic effects in Estonian spontaneous speech. Following work on En…
The prosody of surprise questions in Estonian
This paper examines the role of prosody in a little-studied type of non-canonical questions: syntactically and lexically canonical interrogative sentences that have been uttered by the speaker in order to express surprise. The study compares Estonian surprise questions with string-identical information-seeking questions elicited by means of context descriptions. The materials comprise 1,008 utterances by 21 speakers. It is concluded that the pros…
Spectral and temporal properties of Estonian palatalization
The aim of this paper is to describe and compare the spectral and temporal properties of Estonian palatalized and non-palatalized consonants /l n s t/ and the vowels that precede them. Acoustic recordings of 43 native Estonian subjects producing word pairs where palatalization differentiated meaning were analyzed in this study. We offer a new perspective on how palatalization is realized by employing a dynamic analysis of the formant trajectories…
Articulatory properties of Estonian palatalization by Russian L1 speakers
We studied the articulatory and temporal properties of Estonian palatalization by Russian L1 Estonian L2 speakers and compared the results to Estonian native speakers. The tongue movement of 24 Russian L1 and 21 Estonian L1 speakers were recorded with an electromagnetic articulograph. The speakers articulated phonologically contrastive word pairs and i-stemmed nouns where the final consonant was palatalized. Previous research has shown that palat…

Estonian as a heritage language in Sweden
This paper studies the Estonian three-way phonological quantity distinction by second-generation Swedish Estonians. Production of the three phonological quantities has been measured in informal interviews with four speakers, all active members of the Estonian exile community. Comparisons with native Estonians show that three of the four Swedish Estonians had retained the length difference between quantity 2 and 3 in all disyllabic word types. All…
