Linguistic Assimilation in Two Variables.
Amastae, Jon; Satcher, David
Language Variation and Change, v5 n1 p77-90 1993
The type of relatively rapid speech modification sometimes called "accommodation" was examined by tracking change on the part of speakers of Honduran Spanish newly resident among speakers of Northern Mexican Spanish. Final /n/ velarization and spirantization both changed toward local norms, but local contact resulted in greater change for velarization. (Contains 12 references.) (Author/LB)
