Description
The SIAEW Corpus (Spanish Iso-Accented English Words) is a collection of monosyllabic English words in which one segment (the 'target') is replaced with its Spanish-accented counterpart, at one of 5 gradations of accentedness. Steps are equally-spaced in accentedness as judged by native listeners. The procedure used to generate the Corpus is described in detail in Pérez Ramón, García Lecumberri and Cooke (submitted to Interspeech 2022); for a preprint contact rperez.ram@gmail.com.
