Abstract

[Vowel nasality is a distinctive feature in American English in cases such as camp, hint , and bunk , as compared, respectively, with cap, hit , and buck. This is demonstrated by the results of a number of experiments with synthetic speech and magnetic tape, by data obtained from spectrograms and kymograms, and by the descriptive analysis of pertinent utterances by American speakers. A general rule for the distribution of this phenomenon is given in the conclusion.]
