Software for experimental methods in phonetic research

摘要

The article examines the methods and computer programs for experimental phonetics. Studies of experimental phonetics give more accurate results and for this reason it is interesting for many researchers in various scientific fields. This article is up-to-date because the materials and methods of experimental phonetics presented here are considered from the point of view of digital technology, which is the most relevant area of the present. The purpose of our study is to analyze computer programs for phonetic studies using the example of studies already made by various researchers. During the research when analyzing scientific work with the software such as PRAAT and Speech analyzer, we focus on descriptive and comparative descriptive methods. Summing up the results, the article notes that at the moment experimental phonetics reached a new level thanks to computer technologies. The materials of this study may be interesting for young phoneticists and linguists, as the newest source of information in this area.
