Pretzel et Bretzel : lecture et analyse événementielles des signaux de parole pour l’étude des consonnes occlusives de l’alsacien

Résumé En

Articulatory-acoustics events and the relations that tie them together are crucial to allowing for the proper speech functioning. The features at the phonological level and the cues studied in phonetics are related to specific speech events, visible for example in acoustic signals. Thus, a close analysis of these events allows us to understand which relations underpin the system of oppositions. This article deals with the Alsatian stops, taking into account he feature [voice]. A number of questions relating to the nature of the plosives are not solved. These questions are representative of the difficulties in analyzing a system of fragile oppositions which nevertheless is operational and fluent. So, we shall thus present a classification of the consonants of Alsatian. We shall begin by evoking problems posed by the classification of plosives, through features and cues. We shall use the results obtained during experimental analyses of the speakers of Colmar, the results of which might demonstrate the importance of understanding the event structure of these consonants, in order to classify them at a convincing phonological level. Les consonnes de l'alsacien, en l'occurrence la variante dialectale parlée dans la région de Colmar, comportent deux séries de consonnes occlusives. Contraire-ment aux deux séries de consonnes correspondantes en français (p/t/k et b/d/g), en alsacien, aucune des séries ne présente le trait de sonorité. Lors de leur production, les cordes vocales ne vibrent pour aucun des deux groupes. Cependant, ces sons sont graphiés de deux manières différentes, premier indice qui signale que les lo-cuteurs font une différence entre eux.
