| Description | I investigate phonetic changes in Anglophone expatriates living and working in the Czech Republic (namely the length of VOTs in /p t k/ under stress, retention of dental fricatives, and desonorization of word-final voiced consonants) using word-list recordings. In addition, I measure the perceived foreign-accentedness in a global foreign accent rating experiment, using recordings of a story retelling task. I complement the results with the qualitative analysis of the expatriates‘ personal narratives. |
