Resumen:
Este estudio piloto de nueve meses de duración presenta un análisis empírico que refleja la evolución de los fonemas oclusivos sordos ingleses /ph/, /th/, /kh/ en dos grupos (control y experimental) de niños monolingües españoles con edades comprendidas entre los 6,3 (6 años y 3 meses) y 7,8. El seguimiento se llevó a cabo para determinar si los niños del grupo experimental producían aspiración en las realizaciones físicas de /ph,th,kh/ en mayor medida que los niños del grupo control. La hipótesis inicial se basaba en la idea de que a lo largo de un curso académico los sujetos del grupo experimental desarrollarían un VOT (Voice Onset Time) superior al grupo control.
Summary:
This nine month duration pilot study presents an empirical analysis that shows the evolution of the voiceless plosive English phonemes /ph/, /th/, /kh/ in two groups (control and experimental) of Spanish monolingual children aged 6.3 (6 years and 3 months) to 7.8 years old. The monitoring aimed to discover whether the experimental group would produce a more natural realization of the English phonemes mentioned above than the control group. The hypothesis predicted that the experimental group would develop a longer VOT than the control group by the end of the academic year.
