Identifying Plosives in L2 English: The Case of L1 Cypriot Greek Speakers

By Elena Kkese

This volume investigates the difficulties adult L2 users of English encounter with plosive consonants. It presents the results of two tasks examining the acquisition of plosive voicing contrasts by college students with CG backgrounds. These results are discussed in relation to the approaches of second language phonology and speech perception.
