Broken tone in Leivu CV’V-words
Leivu is one of the South Estonian dialects historically spoken in eastern Latvia and influenced by Latvian. One likely influence is broken tone or stød, which was developing in Leivu mainly as a result of the loss of /h/ in first quantity degree words. The aim of this study is to determine what characterises the pronunciation of CV’V-words (lost intervocalic /h/) and differentiates these from CVV-words. Sound durations, F0 and intensity contours…

Quantity-related variation of duration, pitch and vowel quality in spontaneous Estonian
Estonian
Estonian belongs to the Finnic branch of the Finno-Ugric language family and is closely related to Finnish. It has about one million native speakers in Estonia and about 150,000 elsewhere in the world. In phonetics, Estonian is probably best known for its three degrees of contrastive quantity: short (Q1), long (Q2) and overlong (Q3
Quantity in Livonian
The paper describes work done up to now with Livonian, the southernmost Finnic language. The study proceeds within the framework of the Finno-Ugric Prosody Project: a set of test sentences is recorded by a number of native speakers, an acoustic-phonetic analysis is carried through of the recordings, the measurements are subjected to statistical treatment, and the results are analyzed from the point of view of their role in the manifestation of Li…
