Our results show that speakers from Madrid have higher articulation rate and speech rate than speakers from Mexico, but that such differences are mainly observed in spontaneous speech (picture description). Instead, the number and duration of pauses were not significantly affected by the provenance of speakers. Some methodological issues are discussed in order to make legitimate inferences from this exploratory study.Show less >
