Abstract(in English) For the purpose of investigating acoustic similarity of twins' voices, frequency distance of high-order formants are measured from word uttered by 8 pairs of twins. According to the results of the weighted distance using the 3^ and the 4^ formants, it is found that 6 pairs of twins have the similarity in vowels /a/ or /e/ extracted from the spoken word "Mame."
