Authors	Balazic Bulc, Tatjana; Horga, Damir; Požgaj Hadži, Vesna
Abstract	SPEECH FLUENCY: A RESULT OF ORAL LANGUAGE PROFICIENCY?The aim of this paper is to answer the question of the influence of language proficiency on speech fluency in relation to speakers’ other cognitive abilities by comparing the speech of research participants who speak Slovenian as L1 and Croatian as LF. By using the method of acoustic and corpus analysis, the values of speech rate, articulation rate, mean length of runs and the length and frequency of certain pauses are presented. Key words: oral language proficiency, speech fluency, speech rate, pauses, filler words GOVORNA FLUENTNOST: REZULTAT GOVORNE JEZIKOVNE ZMOŽNOSTI? Na primeru govorcev slovenščine kot prvega in hrvaščine kot tujega jezika poskušamo v prispevku odgovoriti na vprašanje, koliko na govorno fluentnost v tujem jeziku vpliva stopnja znanja tujega jezika, koliko pa nanjo vplivajo druge kognitivne sposobnosti govorca. Z metodologijo akustične in korpusne analize so bile v raziskavi izračunane vrednosti časovnih parametrov hitrosti govora, hitrosti izgovora, trajanja govornega bloka in trajanja disfluentnosti ter frekventnosti pojavitev posameznih vrst disfluentosti. Ključne besede: ustno znanje jezika, govorna fluentnost, hitrost govora, premori, mašila
