On Spoken French
Author: William J. Ashby
Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing Company
ISBN: 9027254893
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 550
Book Description
This scholarly edition invites us to reconsider our assumptions about the French language, by showcasing the oeuvre of one of the pioneers of diachronic Spoken French corpus linguistics, William J. Ashby, and the ground-breaking findings to come out of his influential Tours corpora (1976 & 1995), including two real-time studies appearing for the first time in English translation. To help readers visualize just how radically different the morphosyntax, morphophonology, and semantics of Spoken French are from French-on-the-page, the editor has developed a glossing framework, designed to capture the systemic, radically-prefixal morphology of Spoken French and the variability of change-in-progress. The model, presented here and used to gloss the examples from the Tours corpus, is also suitable for corpus-tagging. The volume is organized into sections preceded by an Editor’s note and followed by suggestions for further reading, and closes with an appendix of French corpora. This scholarly edition was written for advanced undergraduates, graduate students, and scholars in the field.

The French Language in the Seventeenth Century
Author: Peter Rickard
Publisher: Boydell & Brewer
ISBN: 9780859913539
Category : France
Languages : en
Pages : 574
Book Description
The sixty French texts edited here are all direct commentaries, by contemporary authors, on the French language in the 17th century. By this time, French had begun to assert its independence; in its written and printed form it was being used for a wide variety of literary, technical and administrative purposes. Its practitioners not only successfully challenged the hitherto dominant position of Latin, but also began, for the first time, to discuss and analyse for its own sake the language which was now their preferred medium for expression -- hence, in the first half of the seventeenth century, a growing number of publications on the nature and characteristics of French. The texts demonstrate the sustained critical preoccupationwith the welfare of the French language in the 17th century, and illustrate the various ways in which the writers of the age contributed to its development as an instrument of literary expression and social intercourse.

Méthodes et outils pour l'analyse phonétique des grands corpus oraux
Author: NGUYEN Noël
Publisher: Lavoisier
ISBN: 274629530X
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 322
Book Description
Cet ouvrage offre un panorama des méthodes et des outils utilisables pour les analyses phonétiques sur de grands corpus oraux. Les ressources considérables dont nous disposons aujourd'hui dans le domaine de l’oral, en sont venues à jouer un rôle majeur pour les phonologues et les phonéticiens, qui entreprennent de soumettre leurs hypothèses théoriques à des tests empiriques étendus. On a vu se généraliser l'utilisation d'un large ensemble d'instruments et de méthodes pour le traitement et l'analyse automatique des données recueillies. L'ouvrage aborde notamment le prétraitement des données acoustiques, l’extraction (semi-)automatique des paramètres d’analyse, la mise en relation entre les données acoustiques et les catégories phonologiques. L’accent est placé sur le français, et les données recueillies dans le projet « Phonologie du français contemporain » sont utilisées dans de nombreux exemples. Une large place est accordée à la contribution des technologies de la parole, et notamment les systèmes de reconnaissance automatique de la parole, à l’analyse phonétique des grands corpus oraux.

Origins of Yiddish Dialects
Author: Alexander Beider
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0198739311
Category : Foreign Language Study
Languages : en
Pages : 646
Book Description
This book traces the origins of modern varieties of Yiddish and presents evidence for the claim that, contrary to most accounts, Yiddish only developed into a separate language in the 15th century. Through a careful analysis of Yiddish phonology, morphology, orthography, and the Yiddish lexicon in all its varieties, Alexander Beider shows how what are commonly referred to as Eastern Yiddish and Western Yiddish have different ancestors. Specifically, he argues that the western branch is based on German dialects spoken in western Germany with some Old French influence, while the eastern branch has its origins in German dialects spoken in the modern-day Czech Republic with some Old Czech influence. The similarities between the two branches today are mainly a result of the close links between the underlying German dialects, and of the close contact between speakers. Following an introduction to the definition and classification of Yiddish and its dialects, chapters in the book investigate the German, Hebrew, Romance, and Slavic components of Yiddish, as well as the sound changes that have occurred in the various dialects. The book will be of interest to all those working in the areas of Yiddish and Jewish Studies in particular, and historical linguistics and history more generally.
