The paper presents preliminary results of a corpus-based study of phrase-final segment lengthening in Russian. The Corpus of Russian Professionally Read Speech (CORPRES) was used to investigate the degree of lengthening for segments immediately preceding phrase boundaries as a function of segment class and boundary type. According to our data, there is a general tendency for shorter segments to show more lengthening than longer segments (in pairs like /f/–/s/, /t/–/t
j
/ etc.). However, this seems to work the opposite way in pairs of fricatives vs. stops. We have also found that boundary depth (sentence-final vs. non-sentence-final) and the presence or absence of a pause have an effect on phrase-final segment lengthening.
