Publisher's Synopsis
""Researches in Experimental Phonetics: The Study of Speech Curves"" is a book written by Edward W. Scripture, a prominent American psychologist and linguist. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the study of speech curves, which involves analyzing the physical properties of speech sounds and their acoustic patterns. The author delves into the methods used to measure speech curves, including the use of various instruments such as the kymograph and the phonograph. He also discusses the importance of studying speech curves in understanding the mechanics of speech production and the various factors that influence speech patterns, such as age, gender, and dialect.Throughout the book, Scripture presents numerous examples of speech curves and their corresponding sounds, providing readers with a clear understanding of the relationship between speech sounds and their physical properties. He also explores the practical applications of speech curve analysis, such as in the development of speech recognition technology and the diagnosis and treatment of speech disorders.Overall, ""Researches in Experimental Phonetics: The Study of Speech Curves"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the science of speech production and the analysis of speech sounds. It provides a detailed exploration of the methods and applications of speech curve analysis, as well as a fascinating look into the mechanics of human speech.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
