This dataset contains tabular files with auditory classifications for onset /v/ produced by German learners of English. The data originate from two different studies. The data by Soenning (2020) include n = 62 speakers (instructional-setting learners from northern Bavaria; age: 11--30), who produced a total of n = 429 tokens. These data were elicited with two reading tasks, a word list and short question-answer sequences. The data by Rank (2016) include n = 26 speakers (mostly from southern Germany (Bavaria) who had learned English in an instructional context for at least 7 consecutive years; the sample may be considered as representing intermediate to advanced proficiency levels), who produced a total of n = 1144 tokens. These data were elicited with a word list and a reading passage. See ReadMe file for more details. Related publication: Soenning, Lukas. 2020. Phonological variation in German Learner English.
