Data on acoustic phonetic properties of non-coronal fricatives in monosyllabic words of Zhongjiang Chinese.

ABSTRACT: The data reported in this article are non-coronal fricative measurements from 10 (5 male; 5 female) native speakers of Zhongjiang Chinese. Each speaker produced 10 repetitions of 90 monosyllabic words beginning with either a velar fricative, /x/, or a labial-dental fricative, /f/. The measurements reported include spectral properties often used to characterize fricative variation, including: spectrum center of gravity (CoG), spectrum standard deviation (SD), spectrum skew, spectrum kurtosis, maximum amplitude frequency, and maximum amplitude. These measurements are compared across two data filtering conditions: a high pass filter condition, in which a 300Hz high pass filter was applied to the data before spectral measurements were calculated, and a no filter condition. The 90 monosyllabic
