CV Pattern Match

The CV Pattern Match analysis compares the consonant–vowel (CV) pattern of the IPA Target and IPA Actual productions for each word and reports the percentage that match.

For each selected speaker the report includes the Word Count, Matches, Match %, Mismatches, Mismatch %, and Avg Distance.

Parameters

Figure 1. CV Pattern Match Parameters

CV Pattern Match Parameters
The following parameters are available:
  • CV Pattern Options - these options affect how the CV pattern of IPA transcripts is constructed.
    • Strip diacritics - See Diacritic Options
    • Include stress markers
    • Include explicit syllable boundaries (syllable breaks marked with a dot '.')
    • Insert implicit syllable boundaries - insert a dot at every syllable break which is not marked with stress.
    • Compensatory lengthening - any C or V marked with a long or halflong diacritic will be doubled. Note: if length diacritics are ignored then this setting will have no effect.
    • Simplify composed phones - phones composed with a ligature will be reduced to a single character.
