Dear Reddy,
You may have noticed this paper:
Bradlow, A.R., Pisoni, D.B., Yamada, R.A. and Tohkura, Y. Training Japanese listeners to identify
English /r/ and /l/ IV: Some effects of perceptual learning on speech production. Journal of the
Acoustical Society of America, 1997, 101, 2299-2310.
Although, English /l/ is quite different, in both, acoustics and articulatory dimension, than /l/
in other languages, Spanish, Italian, for instance, where /l/ and /r/ are more similar.
Best wishes,
Heriberto

Dear list members,
Wish you all a merry Christmas and prsoperous new
year!
I am interested in knowing the possible ways in which perception of
the /la/-ra/ contrast is different from that of the other consonantal
contrasts- the spectral and temporal; importantly I would like to know if
there is any reaction time studies comparing the perception difficulties of
this contrast with other consonantal contrasts. Thanking you,
