 note = {First language prosodic timing is a priority issue for TESOL teachers and phonologists alike (Celce-Murcia et al 1996; Cutler et al 1994). Vowel sequences are important because they reveal several crucial aspects of this timing in a microcosm. However, cross-linguistic comparisons need to be reassessed according to whether the focus is on micro-phonetic phenomena such as the transition between two adjacent vowels, or broader phonological indices such as vowel length or accent. Conclusions hinge on a few central observations. Phonologists tend to think of phonetic nucleus as being characterized by phonological accent. However, the comparisons of Japanese and English vowel sequences found in the literature and tested by experimental studies (Gore 2003) show that phonetic nucleus and phonological accent do not necessarily go hand in hand. It seems possible for a phonological diphthong to influence accent placement in Japanese, while being phonetically indistinguishable from a sequence which has no effect on accent; and it also seems possible for a sequence not normally considered a phonological diphthong to show more diphthongal phonetic characteristics than one which does constitute a phonological diphthong.},
