Ejective and pulmonic stops in Apurimac Quechua (spoken in Southern Peru) are compared with respect to voice onset time (henceforth VOT), amplitude rise (the following vowel’s peak amplitude – onset amplitude), and F0 change (following vowel’s midpoint F0 – onset F0). These properties distinguish ejective from pulmonic stops in other languages (e.g. Ingush) but were previously unanalyzed within any Quechuan language. We show that amplitude rise and VOT distinguish Apurimac Quechua ejective stops from pulmonic stops, but F0 change does not. All syllables (stressed and unstressed) of CV.CV.CV words were analyzed. The consistent vowel /a/ followed each stop onset. 60 pulmonic plus 40 ejective stops were compared (all places of articulation) (a = .05). Ejective stops had significantly longer VOTs than pulmonic stops. Vowels following ejective stops also had significantly longer amplitude rise than vowels following pulmonic stops, indicating that ejective stops therefore rise to peak amplitude more slowly than pulmonic. F0 change did not significantly differ between vowels following ejective and pulmonic stops. |
