Drenjongke is a Tibeto-Burman language spoken in Sikkim, India, whose phonetic properties are understudied. This language is reported to have a four-way laryngeal contrast: aspirated, voiceless, voiced, and “devoiced” (van Driem 2016). An acoustic analysis of twelve Drenjongke speakers shows that in addition to differences in VOT, there are systematic differences in F0 and F1 in the following vowel. Our analysis further suggests that high F1 after devoiced consonants is controlled, rather than being an automatic consequence of long VOT. We conclude that Drenjongke speakers use at least three acoustic dimensions (VOT, F0 and F1) to distinguish the four-way laryngeal contrast.
