| I don't know much about this subject, but wikipedia says Finnish is a syllable-timed language, Japanese is mora-timed, and Dutch is stress-timed. |
|
| The teacher can show them a visual contrast between the two languages to indicate that Chinese is syllable-timed while English is stress-timed. |
|
| Pronunciation difficulties of this kind are commonly found among those learners whose native tongues are syllable-timed and open-syllabled. |
|
| The proponents of the traditional rhythm typology say that stress-timed and syllable-timed languages differ in several respects. |
|
| Learners whose mother tongue is phonemic or syllable-timed have particular problems. |
|
| These reductions are only evident in the time series after the introduction of the syllable-timed speech treatment procedure. |
|
| But an even more common error made by non-native speakers whose mother tongue is syllable-timed is not reducing function words and other unstressed syllables enough. |
|
| Therefore some researchers argue for a distinction between stress-timed languages and syllable-timed languages. |
|
| This report presents the results of an experimental investigation of the effects of a syllable-timed speech treatment on three stuttering preschool children. |
|
| Speakers of MLE speak with a syllable-timed rhythm, in which all syllables are accorded roughly the same time and stress, as in French or Japanese. |
|
| The results show similarities in the rhythm development in both L1 and L2 acquisition: In both groups, speech production develops from more syllable-timed patterns towards more stress-timed patterns. |
|
| Syllable-timed speech involves speaking with minimal differentiation in linguistic stress across syllables. |
|
| Syllable-timed speech is a characteristic of languages that have come into contact with other languages. |
