Subject: NSRF Webinar on Phonetic Learning


Spring season’s final Nordic Speech Research Forum webinar takes place
on Tue, May 12th at 14:00 - 15:00 (Helsinki/Eastern European Summer
Time EEST; UCT+3). You are warmly welcome to join the event via our
website https://www.jyu.fi/nsrf.
Phonetic learning of non-native speech features: Evidence from
behavioral and brain activity experiments
Piia Astikainen, University of Jyväskylä
News:
Zoom had wider problems on the day of our previous webinar. We were
able to hear Míša Hejná’s presentation “The phonetic construction of
good and evil from a whole-larynx perspective” but could only discuss
via chat. Some had problems accessing Zoom. If you missed the
presentation, please find the materials on our website.
The Nordic Speech Research Forum webinars continue in the autumn.
Season start is on Sept 16th at 16:00–17:00 (Helsinki/EEST). We have
the pleasure to welcome a special guest: Professor Alice Henderson
from Grenoble University will give a presentation titled “Listener
training on L2 accents for non-academic university staff”.
Who would you like to hear present their research? You can suggest
speakers at https://forms.office.com/e/4DjYzpbxVp.
The Nordic Speech Research Forum is organized by the Speech and Speech
Research Special Interest Group of the Finnish Association for Applied
Linguistics (AFinLA) and the Nordic Network for L2 Pronunciation
(NNL2P). The current coordinators are Riikka Ullakonoja (University of
Jyväskylä) and Elina Vasu (Tampere University).
