Assessing intonation and prosody in children with atypical language development: the PEPS-C test and the revised version.

abstract：:The general viseme groups of the Welsh language are found to be very similar to those found in other European languages. Of the consonants found only in the Welsh language the uvular fricative /x/ was grouped with velar and glottal consonants. Generally /ł/ forms an individual viseme group and is quite distinct from /...
