Self-monitoring

Answer 1

Speakers are monitoring their own speech
- This is done to words that are being used OR is about
to be used

This often result in the speaker correcting his/hers own utterance/sentence.

Question 7

Repair

Answer 7

Question 8

Well-formedness rule

Answer 8

When error jointed with repair, they must create a grammatically complete coordinated structure.

Now go from the brown dot to the bl… to the red dot.
- … to the blue and to the red dot.

Question 9

Prosodic marking

Answer 9

Putting emphasis or stress on the replacement utterance of a repair. To highlight the new information.

• More likely in repairs than revisions
• More likely if there is high degree of contrast between
  error and repair terms(high cost for the sentence if
  error slides by). E.g. up and down.

Question 10

Connected speech processes: CSPs

Answer 10

Include effects such as palatalisations.
- Would you → Wouldja

Palatalisations is less likely if the last word (“you”) is a low-frequency word. This is because the beginning of words are more important than the ending. So recognising a low-frequency word with a manipulated beginning leads to poor recognition.
