Gender, Language, and Historical Interpretation
Oliver H. Kelley and his family settled on the farm in the mideighteen hundreds. He experimented with new agricultural techniques and was influential in organizing farmers in his own region as well as nationally. He was part of a group that founded the Grange. In 1961, having previously purchased it, the Grange gave Kelley's farm to the Minnesota Historical Society. A National Landmark, the site is now operated by the Society.
Duration and Context Effects on the Perception of English /R/ and /I
This study examines the role that duration plays in the perception of a new phonemic contrast, namely English /r/-/I/, by Cantonese speakers.

The results of our study show that increased duration of the acoustic signal is not sufficient to fac…

For some subjects, production of the contrast was more accurate than their perception of it, replicating and extending a previous finding reported by Goto (1971) in Japan. The difficulty in perception of the liquid contrast varied with its position in the word. Prevocalic /r/ and /l/ in…
