Differences of Perceptual Correctness in the Place of Articulation Between Korean Plosives According to Two Phonation Types

두 가지 발성 유형에 따른 한국어 파열음의 조음 위치 인지도(認知度) 차이

The final purpose of this paper is to prove that, under noisy environment, there is significant difference of perceptibility of the place of articulation between fortis plosives and aspirated plosives in Korean. For this research, a perceptual experiment had been made. Two groups of subjects heard stimuli with noise and were required to answer which sound they had heard. The result is that, with noise, aspirated plosives cannot be heard clearly whereas fortis plosives can be heard well.
