Definition of pause

[Florence Chenu]

Dear Britta,
I have the same comment as Rob Switserlood and I would add B.
Zellner-Keller's work :

Zellner, B. (1994). Pauses and the Temporal Structure of Speech. In E.
Keller (Ed.), Fundamentals of speech synthesis and speech recognition (pp.
41-62). Chichester: John Wiley.


Florence.

Dear Britta,

A lot of people take 250ms as a cut-off point. Pauses shorter than that
could reflect breathing patterns and articulatory movements.
They all base this choice on work by Goldman-Eisler:
Goldman-Eisler, F., 1968. Psycholinguistics: experiments in spontaneous
speech. London: New York, Academic Press.
Goldman-Eisler, F., 1968. Pauses, clauses, sentences. Language and Speech,
15, 1030-113


Best, Rob Zwitserlood
