Research

  • Participate in Accent Research

    Volunteers Wanted for a Research Study "Singing into Accents".  This is a study of the intonation patterns of accents/dialects.

     

    Do you speak an identifiable or ‘strong’ version of accents/dialects from the following places:

    • Wales
    • Minnesota
    • Norrthern Ireland

     

    Would you be willing to make a recording of your speech for analysis in this study and (optionally) for sharing in a dialect archive?

             

    If so, please consider participating in one of two ways:

    1)    Attend a 10 minute interview on UConn’s Storrs campus to record your voice and fill

    out a quick background information form (to give context to your accent)

    2)    Self-record and email sound file and forms in.  Email jennifer.scapetis@uconn.edu

    for a self-record pack.
