Have you heard of HVPT--High Variability Phonetic Training. More than ten years ago, we showed that you could train Japanese listeners to perceive English /r/ and /l/. Up until our studies this was believe to be impossible because Japanese does not have this contrast. We also showed in a pioneering study that this learning transfers from perception to production. That is, after HVPT in perception, our subjects also showed better articulation of this contrast. Is this work of any interest to your readers? dbp Hello: This is Dave Pisoni at Indiana University.
