How can you tell from the formants (or whatever) of a vowel if it's rounded? —Felix the Cassowary ɑe hɪː jɐ 10:24, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
- Yes, but there isn't a simple correlation, like there is for F1 and hight (high vowels depress the first formant). With rounded vowels, all higher formants are depressed. However, the effect is most noticeable with F2 for rounded back vowels, and with F3 for rounded front vowels. kwami 19:03, 2005 September 2 (UTC)
I'd really like to see a source on this endolabial vs. exolabial rounding. 72.130.89.63 (talk) 04:12, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
