Abstract
This study examines the production of word-final consonant clusters in Persian in order to provide an account of their optional acoustic simplification.Persian optionally allows the simplification of word-final coronal stops when preceded by obstruents or the homorganic nasal /n/.The words /ræft/ 'went', /d u y / 'sew' and /qæsd/ 'intention', for example, are optionally simplified to [ræf], [dux], and [qæs] in fast or casual speech.What is unclear is whether there is any coronal gesture left after simplification occurs.This type of issue was first discussed in the Articulatory Phonology literature.For example, Browman and Goldstein (1990) hypothesized that the alveolar closure gesture for the apparently deleted /t/ in must be [mAsbi] in fluent/casual speech is still present but completely overlapped or hidden by the labial closure gesture.This means that the gesture for the alveolar /t/ (raising the tongue tip towards the alveolar ridge) is masked during the time that lips are closed or narrowed for labial /b/ and that is why the closure for /t/ is not audible.The current study aims to investigate this issue in Persian.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
