Primes¶
- Minimal Pairs
- The minimality invariant is load-bearing: the whole conclusion collapses if the pair leaked, if, for instance, the two recordings also differed in vowel length (a real risk, since voicing of a following consonant conditions vowel length in English).
This sourceExperimental confirmation that vowel duration is conditioned by the voicing of the following consonant in English (the bad/bat duration effect) — a feature that can leak into a phonological minimal pair.
