HELP!
I need the help of 5 NON NATIVE speakers of English. Basically, what I need is for you to do is listen to this recording of 12 different words, and then tell me the words you heard. I'd also need to know relevant demographic info like your native language, age, sex, etc.
Here's the audio (0:51 long):

The words aren't supposed to be really easy to understand, and some might sound the same, so don't worry about hearing the "right" thing.
Help me out please!

That's all I needed. I was looking at perception of stop sounds, for those of you who are curious. In words like "spy," if you drop the s at the beginning, the p sounds like its voiced, yielding something more similar to "buy." yeah, it was an assignment for my phonetics class. appreciate the help from all you guys!

> In words like "spy," if you drop the s at the beginning, the p sounds like its voiced, yielding something more similar to "buy."
What's the reasoning for that? Word initial [b] and [p] are differentiated more on the latter being aspirated, rather than any voicing distinction?
