This paper analyses the way that Polish learners of English articulate plosive and affricate consonants preceding another obstruent occlusive in both L1 and L2. Considering that English allows unreleased plosives before any stop, that is in a wider range of contexts than Polish, a Polish learner may find it confusing that it is regarded unacceptable to block the affricate release before another (in English always homorganic) affricate. In Polish the first of two homorganic affricates is often reduced to the occlusion phase, while unreleased plosives appear very rarely in non-homorganic contexts. This apparent paradox in the treatment of affricate and plosive consonant clusters may lead to complicated transfer patterns, which we examine by observing the release suppression tendencies in Polish and English phrases and sentences read by phonetically trained and untrained Polish learners of English. The results indicate strong negative transfer tendencies and suggest a connection between gemination patterns and unreleased occlusive distribution in a language.

Geminates in the Slavic languagesThe subject of the article is the occurrence of geminates in Slavic languages. Research on the frequency of geminated consonants is based on 50-page texts read by native speakers. The results did not confirm the popular opinion that the occurrence vs. lack of geminates is a typological feature differentiating Slavic languages. The study showed, however, that today typologically significant difference between Slavic languages is the one in frequency of the occurrence of geminates. Geminaty w językach słowiańskichTematem artykułu jest występowanie geminat w językach słowiańskich. Badanie frekwencji geminat na podstawie pięćdziesięciostronicowych tekstów, czytanych przez rodzimych użytkowników języka, nie potwierdziło popularnej opinii, że występowanie vs. brak geminat stanowi cechę typologiczną, różnicującą języki słowiańskie. Badanie wykazało natomiast, że dziś typologicznie istotne są różnice we frekwencji występowania geminacji.
