• This study investigated how Japanese college students recognize and produce English syllables and the effects of syllable-counting training on their ability to deal with syllables. Participants improved their ability to identify syllables in English words as a result of training. Their recognition of syllables was affected by the number of syllables in words, which conceivably shows the influence of their use of moras, epenthetic vowels, bimoraic foot, and their perception of unstressed syllables. The students' ability to segment English words into syllables and to match syllables to notes in English songs was also assessed before and after training. They showed significant improvement in song performance. The results suggest that training in counting syllables is effective in improving the recognition and the production of English syllables by Japanese students.
