Dagaare [a] is not neutral to ATR harmony
Bodomo (1997) describes Dagaare (Gur; Ghana) as having a single low vowel, [a], which is neutral to ATR harmony. This paper presents acoustic data from a study of Dagaare which is inconsistent with this description. A list of sentences was elicited from five native speakers of Dagaare. Each sentence...

| description | Bodomo (1997) describes Dagaare (Gur; Ghana) as having a single low vowel, [a], which is
neutral to ATR harmony. This paper presents acoustic data from a study of Dagaare
which is inconsistent with this description. A list of sentences was elicited
from five native speakers of Dagaare. Each sentence contained in one of four
verbal particles situated in one of four contexts: ATR _ ATR, ATR _
RTR, RTR _ ATR, and RTR _ RTR. Formants of the low vowel were
measured and compared across contexts. Results showed a substantial, significant
difference in F1 values and a smaller but still significant difference in F2 values in
contexts where is followed by an ATR word compared to when it is followed by an
RTR word. All speakers and all particles showed the same pattern. We conclude that,
contrary to previous claims, the Dagaare low vowel is not neutral to harmony, but rather
has acoustically distinct variants in RTR versus ATR contexts. Bodomo, A. (1997).
