In our previous studies on an objective evaluation of English rhythm control by Japanese learners, we noticed that the accustomed mora-timing of Japanese learners might unfavorably affect stress-timing of English speech. In this paper, we analyzed durational differences between Japanese learners and native speakers in the corresponding speech units such as stressed/unstressed syllable, strong/weak vowel and syllable in content/function word from a perspective of the contrast of stressed/unstressed syllables. As the result, it was confirmed that these durational differences strongly affected subjective evaluation scores given by English language teachers. |
