Abstract:
Phonetic studies of bilabial trills in phonemic systems show that they are preceded immediately by an oral stop closure, e.g., /mbʙ, bʙ, pʙ̥/. A plain bilabial trill without a preceding oral stop closure /ʙ/ is not known to occur as an individual phoneme in any language. On the contrary, plain apical /r/ and uvular /ʀ/ trill phonemes that lack a preceding oral stop closure occur in many languages. The nonexistence of /ʙ/ is likely due to the fact that it does not meet the specific aerodynamic conditions necessary for its production (Maddieson 1989). In this paper, I examine a crosslinguistic s

AbstractIn birds, trill syntax (a trill is a long series of rapidly repeated identical notes) degrades more rapidly by dense vegetation than do syntax with wider spaced notes. Thus, selection might lead to avoidance of trill in dense vegetation. Blue tits (Parus caeruleus) show much geographical variation in the proportion of songs with and without trill and occupy two main types of vegetation while singing, i.e. open broad-leaved deciduous woodland before leaf development and closed evergreen woodland. Blue tit songs with trill are more common in open habitats. We hypothesised that blue tit s

This paper reports on an acoustic analysis of the phonemic tap-trill contrast (/ɾ/-/r/) for first and second generation speakers of Mexican Spanish who live in the Chicagoland area. First, it is shown that speakers most commonly produce phonemic trills with a single apical occlusion, although there is much individual variation. Second, nearly all speakers realize the tap-trill contrast by means of segmental duration, and this is especially true for speakers who favor zero or one closures in the phonemic trill.

Trills by skilled pianists were studied by using a piano in which the on-off timing and dynamic level (hammer velocity) of notes were recorded digitally. In addition, finger flexion-extension accelerations and elecromyographic (EMG) activity were monitored simultaneously and digitized. The data allow estimates to be made of joint angle, duration of contact between finger and key, and time from finger-key contact to note onset. Finger accelerations and EMG activity appear at characteristic phases of the trill cycle; their magnitude and timing depend on trill speed, dynamic level, and the locus

Abstract:
Olson (2022) claims that all bilabial trills in phonemic systems are releases of stops.

Olson notes that the stop-trill phonemes behave as obstruents. I provide acoustic evidence for this claim. Previous studies indicate that the closure of /b/ is shorter than that of /p, ᵐb/ and that the oral portion of the closure of /ᵐb/ is very short (~30–40 ms). Likewise, it has been shown that the stop

Abstract:
Many rhythmic behaviors, such as locomotion and vocalization, involve temporally dynamic patterns. How does the brain generate temporal complexity? Here, we use the vocal central pattern generator (CPG) of Xenopus laevis to address this question. Isolated brains can elicit fictive vocalizations, allowing us to study the CPG in vitro. The X. laevis advertisement call is temporally modulated; calls consist of rhythmic click trills that alternate between fast (∼60 Hz) and slow (∼30 Hz) rates. We investigated the role of two CPG nuclei—the laryngeal motor nucleus (n.IX–X) and the dorsal tegmental

Abstract:
AbstractVocalisations and vocalising bouts of adult male leopard seals recorded from the Prydz Bay region, East Antarctica, were compared to determine whether they showed individual variability. There were distinct individual patterns in the sequence of vocalisations within vocalising bouts. A sequence could be reliably ascribed to a particular individual with a high degree (83%) of certainty. Such sequences may carry information about the identity of the caller. Acoustic characteristics of the two most commonly used vocalisations, the high and low double trills, showed weak within individual

Abstract:
Bearded seals (Erignathus barbatus) produce simultaneous loud, long, narrowband underwater trills. It is likely that calls separated by 1/3 octave will not mask each other. Three call (trill) types were identified. Pitch separations between nearest-neighbour calls were measured by sampling at 1-s intervals. Calls spanned 5 octaves and were centred near 1 kHz. Mean pitch separations decreased significantly as the number of simultaneous calls increased from 2 to 9-11, but remained relatively constant at about 0.3 octave at higher numbers of simultaneous calls. For 2-12 simultaneous calls, the pi

Abstract:
Objectives: Biofeedback therapy is a training technique that has a positive effect on the voice. In order to conduct resonant voice therapy or tube phonation more effectively, it is important for the patient to feel the vibration sensation in a specific part of the facial structures. Therefore, in this study, the clinical basis for facial vibration was presented by quantifying the vibration site and magnitude using vibration sensors during various semi-occluded vocal tract phonations.Methods: A total of 38 normal young adults without dysphonia participated in this study.

Abstract:
Vocal performance refers to the proficiency with which a bird sings songs that are challenging to produce, and can be measured in simple trilled songs by their deviation from an upper bound regression of frequency bandwidth on trill rate. Here, we show that male swamp sparrows ( Melospiza georgiana ) increase the vocal performance of individual song types in aggressive contexts by increasing both the trill rate and frequency bandwidth. These results are the first to demonstrate flexible modulation by songbirds of this aspect of vocal performance and are consistent with this signal feature havi
