Abstract
The extent of both anticipatory and carryover coarticulation is of central importance to theories of speech organization. One articulatory gesture whose anticipation has been studied repeatedly is vowel lip rounding. Daniloff and Moll [J. Speech Hear. Res. 11, 707–721 (1968)], reporting the results of a cinefluorographic study of lip rounding, describe vowel lip rounding as being initiated with the beginning of a preceding consonant string, for strings up to four segments long. Preliminary results of an EMG experiment in which /u/ was preceded by a one‐ or two‐consonant string show activity for the rounding gesture beginning at the same time before the vowel onset for all conditions regardless of the position of the syllable boundary. Parallel results were obtained for carryover coarticulation.
