Proceedings of Fonetik 2001, the XIVth Swedish Phonetics Conference, Örenäs, May 30 - June 1, 2001. Working Papers, Department of Linguistics, Lund University 49: 26-29.
ABSTRACT

The speculation is put forward that segmental reorganization in ‘fast speech’ is partly constrained to preserve speaking rate, specified as number of phonetic syllables per unit time.
