In Memoriam John Kelly (1936–2023)
He was born in Davyhulme, a small town on the outskirts of Manchester on 23 August 1936.He was proud of his Northern roots.One of the first academic articles he published was based on the dialect of his home town, as was one of his last academic conference presentations, in 2000 in Sankelmark Germany, where he returned to the same subject.John read French and German at the University of Manchester and graduated in 1959 with a First Class Honours …
The production of ejectives in German and Georgian
This paper aims to shed light on the textbook description of ejective production through an analysis of the articulatory measures intraoral pressure and larynx height in a data set of phonological Georgian ejectives and epiphenomenal German ejectives. By comparing articulatory mechanisms for ejective production in these two languages, we aim to learn about how ejectives gain phonological status in a language. 14 female German speakers and 13 fema…
Gender (Conformity) Matters
Although sexual orientation (SO) is perceptually ambiguous, people are able to detect it with above-chance accuracy from faces and, sometimes, from voices. Despite a multitude of "gaydar" studies, it is unclear (1) whether vocal or facial signals carry more SO information, (2) whether raters refer to target's SO instead of gender-role conformity when forming SO impressions, and (3) whether there are any differences for female and male targets. We…
Individual differences in acoustic and articulatory undershoot in a German diphthong – Variation between male and female speakers
Differences in acoustic vowel space and the perception of speech tempo
Non-pulmonic sounds in European languages

The first and second harmonics should not be used to measure breathiness in male and female voices
Phonetic differences between male and female speech
The main phonetic differences between the speech of male and female speakers are described and explanations that have been offered to account for these differences are critically discussed
Acoustic and auditory correlates of non-pulmonic sound production in German
Different types of non-pulmonic sound production found in read and spontaneous German are described and exemplified. Stop releases driven by a glottalic airstream are found in sequences of final plosive plus glottalized vowel onset. Both ingressive and egressive velaric stop releases are considered to arise from double occlusions involving partial articulatory overlap in sequences of dorsal stop followed by an apical or bilabial stop. Certain asp…
Gender-specific articulatory-acoustic relations in vowel sequences
Does articulatory reduction miss more patterns than it accounts for
Articulatory explanations are often proposed to account for many of the phonetic patterns found in speech beyond the citation form. Unscripted material from Suffolk English and North German is used to argue that articulatory explanation can too tightly constrain our expectations of the types of phonetic patterns which spontaneous speech contains. It is also shown how articulatory explanation can offer an adequate account of a dataset, stopping sh…
