phonometry|fəʊˈnɒmɪtrɪ|
[ad. G. phonometrie (E. & K. Zwirner, Grundfragen der Phonometrie (1936)).]
A method of investigating language by the statistical analysis of instrumentally measured speech sounds and informants' responses to the same data.
1936Amer. Speech XI. 358 The first volume..seeks to provide the historical and the theoretical bases for the methods of ‘Phonometry’. The raison d'être of this venture is the conviction that the problems of comparative and historical linguistics are susceptible of further solution than has yet been achieved if one applies to these problems the technique known in biology as the statistics of variations. 1938Ibid. XIII. 275 The chief concern of phonometry to date has been the empirical study of the variation of speech sounds, or, more precisely stated, the attributes of speech sounds, such as, for example, that of the duration of vowels. 1964Phonetica XI. 151 Phonometry always works with recordings of connected speech. |
