The paper studies the potential influence of the structure of a language (in terms of phonological units) on the anticipatory coarticulation. It is hypothesized that speech gestures are optimally planned and that the size of the planned sequence is influenced by language constraints. The status of the syllable is studied via simulations with a speech production model and experimental data.
