Acoustic data from 16 native speakers from the two major dialectal varieties of Welsh were analysed. We found vowel duration highly predictive by coda duration, taking into account possible influences of phrase prosody, speaker and variety specific deviations. Also, prosodic prominence primarily appears to effect coda duration in Welsh. %K vowel coda interaction, Welsh, speaker specific behaviour %B Proceedings of the 18th International Congress of Phonetic Sciences %Z sequence number: 0574 %I University of Glasgow %@ 9780852619414
