Add to ORKGMany back-channels seem to be primarily sound-symbolic expressions, rather than fixed sequences of phonemes with arbitrarily associated meanings. The presence of a sound-symbolic meaning for one phonetic feature, nasalization, in back-channels in Japanese was investigated. Subjects were presented with tokens synthesized with and without nasal-ization and judged the differences in meaning for each pair. The results showed a fairly consistent meaning for nasal-ization, independent of the pragmatic context and of the phonetic context in which it occurred. 1
