ABSTRACT = {This paper deals with the effect of tempo on phonological structure. In two production experiments, German speakers were asked to read texts at three self-selected rates, normal, fast, and slow. Different speaker strategies were inspected in terms of pausing, phrasing, pitch accent structure and segmental reductions. The first aim of the study is to describe the reorganisation of the pho-nological structure as a function of the three speech rate categories. The second goal is to discuss the strategies used in speaking faster and slower than normal, considering in particular the homogeneity among speakers and the symmetry within speakers. The differences found between and within speakers provide a basis for modelling individual tempo profiles at the phonological level, which could be exploited e.g. for the synthesis of individual voices and speaking styles.},
