Among the different phonation modes, there is one which characterizes
the Spanish language in opposition to English: pre-voicing in voiced
plosives. Previous experience in analytical observation of this acoustic
phonetic phenomenon has led to the posing of a question that has unchained
this work. Once having seen that this occurrence (pre-voicing) is given in
Spanish, it was aimed to deepen in the question of why it traverses the border
between two different languages which are provenant from very different
language families. Bearing into consideration the cross-linguistic transfer
phenomenon as being at least one factor which is echoed in the appearance of
pre-voicing, an original procedure was designed in order to test the degree of
prevalence or percentage of variability that the measuring of voice onset time
showed after a pilot group of students had undergone a target-motivated
session on the issue. This was done via a theoretical introduction to two
groups of first year degree participants to new methods of analyzing speech,
expecting an awareness raising of vocal tract configuration and perhaps a
subsequent change in the values of pre-voiced VOT, approaching to a native
English-like realization of voiced plosives. Although results were
predominantly not positive, some interesting conclusions have been extracted
about other possible factors that may affect and explain the actual
performance of this phonation mode in English voiced plosives production by
native Spanish speakers. [-]
