Acoustic Phonetics, Spanish of Tenerife, palatalsAbstract
This study intends to give an acoustic description of at least two kinds of [t¡S] that are present in Spanish spoken in Tenerife, one of which is the variant called adherent, comparing one to each other and to the Castilian alveopalatal [t¡S]. For this, three basic variables have been taken into consideration: duration, intensity and relevant frequencies obtained from 20 respondents through measurements done using the PRAAT software. Upon obtaining and tabulating the appropriate results, the characteristic values of each of these variants of [t¡S] and their differences have been tried to be parameterized. It has also been tried to check the alternation or non-alternation among some of them in the production of speakers from Tenerife.
In the end, results support the formulated hypothesis of alternation between both allophones for some respondents and contexts.
