Praat is a widely used general purpose tool to analyze and manipulate
digital speech data. It was (and still is) developed by Paul Boersma and
David Weenink at the Institute of Phonetic Sciences, University of
Amsterdam8.23. Although the first aim of Praat was to give students and
scientists of Phonetics a handy tool for manipulating speech data and
for creating stimuli for perception experiments, the Praat tool very
quickly evolved into a general purpose speech tool that may be used for
segmentation and labeling as discussed above.
