A Study of Temporal Variables in English and Korean: Cross-Linguistic, Development, and Native/nonnative Analyses

The present study investigated temporal phenomena in language production, using English and Korean stories based on a film. The temporal variables included were primary temporal variables (speech rate, articulation rate, pause-time ratio, mean length of runs, and mean length of pauses), secondary temporal variables (repeats, false starts, parenthetical remarks, drawls, unfilled pauses, and filled pauses), and temporal cycles. Comparisons were made between Korean and English, adults and children, and native adult English and English spoken by Korean adults.
