| 研究実績の概要 |
With the continuation of the COVID-19 pandemic in FY2022, new data collection was not possible, and an application was made to extend this kakenhi grant for one year. Instead of data collection, existing data was further analyzed. Books on the phonology of standard Chinese, on English pronunciation, and on voice quality were purchased to assist with training of research assistants and selection of stimuli for upcoming experiments.
A paper called "In search of the origin of articulatory settings: Japanese-English bilinguals" was submitted to the well-known Scopus-indexed journal "Language and Speech". Strong interest was shown by the publishers and reviewers, and we are currently revising the paper for resubmission in FY2023.

理由
Because of the continuation of the COVID-19 pandemic, we could not collect new phonetic data in FY2022. Although we were able to submit a paper to a major journal (based on previously collected data), we were forced to request a one-year extension for this kakenhi research.
|
| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
In FY2023, we will start by revising and resubmitting a paper on the origina of articulatory settings to Language and Speech (major journal). We will collect Mandarin Chinese ultrasound and video data from bilingual and trilingual participants, analyze the data, and submit our research to a conference later in the year.
|
| 次年度使用額が生じた理由 |
Because of the continuing COVID-19 pandemic in FY2022, phonetic speech data could not be collected. There were no conferences to attend and no honoraria necessary for research participants. We plan to purchase equipment and start collecting data in the summer, as the Japanese government will change the classification of COVID-19 to level 5 (like seasonal influenza).
