It proposes a methodology for discovering isochrony auditorily in speech and for verifying it instrumentally in the acoustic laboratory. In a small-scale study of an English conversational extract, the gestalt-like rhythmic structures which isochrony creates are shown to have a hierarchical organization. 410 0$aPragmatics & beyond.$pNew ser. ;$v25. 606 $aEnglish language$xRhythm 606 $aEnglish language$xSpoken English 615 0$aEnglish language$xRhythm. 615 0$aEnglish language$xSpoken English. 676 $a421/.6 700 $aCouper-Kuhlen$b Elizabeth$0153973 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781269403321 996 $aEnglish speech rhythm$9749048 997 $aUNINA
