In speech, deviations from canonical realisations of phonemes, syllables or larger units are very common. A02 aims to understand the creative flexibility of the processes involved in such productions via experimental production studies and psycholinguistic and computational modelling. We will investigate whether and how creatively constructed phonetic forms can be selectively elicited and modelled in different interactive and linguistic contexts, testing hypotheses of the dual-route account of phonetic encoding. The project also rests on the hypothesis that the planning of smooth speech output can only be achieved through close interaction between abstract linguistic and concrete motor planning.
