Abstract
Introduction: the Khanty language and its dialects (in particular, the Surgut one) are still poorly studied from the point of view of the experimental phonetics. Direct digital laryngoscopy is one of the methods of dynamic observation of speech production processes in the larynx, which allows to describe not only the articulatory features of a concrete sound, but also to trace the processes of co-articulation and adaptation. Objective: to analyze articulatory features of the previously identified intermittent vowels. Research materials: the laryngo-grams of the intermittent vowels in the pronunciation of the native speakers of the Tromagan subdialect of the Surgut dialect of the Khanty language. Results and novelty of the research: the study revealed that the phonation of intermittent vowels can be divided into several phases with the corresponding acoustic and articulatory effects. Analysis of the laryngo-grams allowed to classify the Surgut vowels i, ɵ, e as injective, i. e. pronounced with a lowered larynx. The vowel a requires further study and verification with the help of somatic and acoustic methods. The data obtained are in a good agreement with the works by B. B. Feyer on the Ket vocalism.
