A Quantitative and Qualitative Analysis of the Final Vowels [i] and [a] in Luganda Deverbal Nouns
"... In this paper, I propose a novel study of Luganda derived nominals that is based on a quantitative analysis of 642 Luganda deverbal nouns. The main objective of this paper is to shed light on the morpho-semantic nature of the final vocalic segments <i> and <a> of Luganda deverbal nouns. ..."

Acoustic, kinematic and aerodynamic aspects of word- initial and word-final vowels in pre-boundary context in French
, 2005
"... Four speakers repeated 8 times 15 sentences containing 'pVp' syllables (V being /a/, /i/ and /u/). The 'pVp' syllables were located in final, penultimate and antepenultimate position relatively to the Intonational Phrase (IP) boundary. They were embedded in lexical words of 1-3 ..."

-3 syllables and were either word-initial or word-final. Results show that the closer the vowel in word-final position is to the IP boundary, the longer the duration and the higher the fundamental frequency of the vowel; it is also characterised by larger lip opening gestures. The potential reduction
Acoustic analysis of Bangla vowel inventory
"... This paper describes the acoustic characteristics of Bangla vowels, obtained by analyzing the recordings of male and female voices. First, the duration of each phoneme was identified by averaging both the male and female voice data; then, formants were analyzed for all the phonemes and finally vowel ..."

Vowel elision and the morphophonology of dominance in Aymara
, 2003
"... Aymara, a Jaqi language of the Andes (Bolivia/Peru/Chile), exhibits morpheme-final vowel deletion that is triggered by a complex set of phonological, morphological, and syntactic factors (Hardman et al. 20011). In this paper I will look at a subset of these cases, ..."

1 Vowel elision in spoken Italian
"... This paper deals with vowel elision in spoken Italian. In Romance languages a vowel sequence (V1V2) across word boundaries can be realized as a hiatus or it can be resolved in a variety of ways. One of them is vowel elision: the final vowel (V1) of a Word (Word1) gets elided if the following word (W ..."
