a
In the static-onset condition, onset frequency values range from those for [i] to those for [a]. For static F2, F3 and F4, onset, offset and target frequencies are the same. F1 target changed in the static condition in order to give the resulting vowel a stop-like quality (Ohde and Haley, 1997; Ohde and Abou-Khalil, 2001). For each stimulus, F1 offset and F1 target frequencies were the same because F1 duration was set at an appropriate 20 ms for a labial stop. This resulted in identical values for F1 offset and F1 target.
