Abstract

This study examined the language-dependency of clear speech modifications by comparing the clear speech strategies of late bilinguals in both their L1 (Finnish) and L2 (English). Results generally supported the hypothesis of language-independent enhancement of global clear speech modifications, but language-dependent segmental enhancement. The global clear speech strategies produced by Finnish-English bilinguals in their L2 (English) were similar in the extent of the modifications to those of native English speakers, indicating a surprising flexibility of the non-native speech production system.
