Abstract

Objective: to contribute in the development of speech audiometric test in Iraq by using Arabic-Iraqi dialect
for measuring word recognition score (WRS).
Methods: sixty normal persons aged 40-65 years (30 males and 30 females) divided into six equal groups.
After determining hearing thresholds (PTA) determine WRS , each list of 25 words to one group, monaurally
in the better ear at several intensities through speech audiometer by using monosyllable Alusi’s words lists
through monitored live voice (MLV).
Results: the normal speech audiometric curves of word recognition test in this study are similar to the
normal curves obtained with previous Arabic, European and American monosyllabic word lists in addition
to no intelligibility differences between Alusi’s monosyllable word half-lists.
Conclusion: this study suggests Alusi’s monosyllable word lists can be used in Iraqi Arabic-speaking adults
to determine WRS.

Keywords:  Iraqi Arabic speech audiometry, WRS, PTA
