van Rossum, M. A.; van As-Brooks, C. J.; Hilgers, F. J. M.; Roozen, M. – Clinical Linguistics & Phonetics, 2009
Glottal stops are conveyed by an abrupt constriction at the level of the glottis. Tracheoesophageal (TE) speakers are known to have poor control over the new voice source (neoglottis), and this might influence the production of "glottal" stops. This study investigated how TE speakers realized "glottal" stops in abutting words…
