Among the sources of pronunciation variability, phrase structure, prosody, communicative situation and speaking style are of prime importance for the modelling of connected-speech production. There is a need for complementing word-level phonetics and phonology by a phrase-level component through the analysis of large labelled connected-speech databases. This leads to the modelling of selected areas of phrase-level processes in basic research and in speech technology applications, especially in TTS synthesis.
