This book was released on 2013-05-01 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Corpus Phonology written by Jacques Durand and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2014-06-05 with total page 704 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook presents the first systematic account of corpus phonology - the employment of corpora for studying speakers' and listeners' acquisition and knowledge of the sound system of their native languages and the principles underlying those systems. The first part of the book discusses the design, compilation, and use of phonological corpora, while the second looks at specific applications. Part 3 presents the tools and methods used, while the final part examines a number of currently available phonological corpora in various languages. It will appeal not only to those working with phonological corpora, but also to researchers and students of phonology and phonetics more generally, as well as to all those interested in language variation, dialectology, language acquisition, and sociolinguistics.
Download or read book Methods in prosody written by Ingo Feldhausen and published by Language Science Press. This book was released on 2018-10-25 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a collection of pioneering papers reflecting current methods in prosody research with a focus on Romance languages. The rapid expansion of the field of prosody research in the last decades has given rise to a proliferation of methods that has left little room for the critical assessment of these methods. The aim of this volume is to bridge this gap by embracing original contributions, in which experts in the field assess, reflect, and discuss different methods of data gathering and analysis. The book might thus be of interest to scholars and established researchers as well as to students and young academics who wish to explore the topic of prosody, an expanding and promising area of study.
Download or read book Varieties of Spoken French written by Sylvain Detey and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 595 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the variation found in modern spoken French, based on the research programme 'Phonology of Contemporary French' (Phonologie du Francais Contemporain, PFC). Extensive data are drawn from all over the French-speaking world, including Algeria, Canada, Louisiana, Mauritius, and Switzerland. Although the principal focus is on differences in pronunciation, the authors also analyse the spoken language at all levels from sound to meaning. The book is accompanied by a website hosting audio-visual material for teaching purposes, data, and a variety of tools for working with corpora. The first part of the book outlines some key concepts and approaches to the description of spoken French. Chapters in Part II are devoted to the study of individual samples of spoken French from all over the world, covering phonological and grammatical features as well as lexical and cultural aspects. The book's companion website provides a class-friendly ready-to-use multimedia version of these 17 chapters, as well as the sound files and full transcription for each extract. Part III looks at inter and intra-speaker variation: it begins with chapters that provide the methodological background to the study of phonological variation using databases, while in the second section authors present case studies of a number of PFC survey points, including Paris, the Central African Republic, and Quebec. Varieties of Spoken French will be an invaluable resource for researchers, teachers, and students of all aspects of French language and linguistics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Phonetically reduced forms are plentiful, theoretically interesting, and a key challenge for automatic speech recognition systems. Yet canonical forms are still central to models of production and perception. Drawing from different fields and diverse languages, this volume brings new insights to the debate on abstractions and canonical forms in linguistics: their psychological reality, descriptive adequacy, and technical implementability.

Download or read book Intonation structure prosodique et ondes c r brales written by Philippe Martin and published by ISTE Group. This book was released on 2018-02-01 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intonation, structure prosodique et ondes cérébralesprésente de nouvelles bases pour l’analyse et la description phonologique de l’intonation du français. Les concepts de groupes accentuels et de structure prosodique y sont exposés à la lumière des découvertes les plus récentes portant sur les oscillations cérébrales, et en particulier sur le rôle des ondes thêta et delta dans la production et la compréhension du langage. Le positionnement spécifique des syllabes accentuées en français, langue dépourvue d’accent lexical, trouve ainsi une explication d’ordre cognitif. De même, les limitations cérébrales de mémorisation permettent de rendre compte de l’élaboration d’une structure prosodique élaborée dynamiquement lors du déroulement de l’énoncé. Sont exposés ici de nombreux exemples de parole lue ou spontanée, oralisée ou silencieuse, visant à illustrer ces différents concepts. L’ouvrage présente également des travaux pratiques d’analyse prosodique, confirmant que l’intonation de l’énoncé, loin d’être une « coquetterie » syntaxique, constitue la base phonologique qui permet au langage d’exister.
Download or read book M thodes et outils informatiques pour l analyse des discours written by Emilie Née and published by PU Rennes. This book was released on 2017-08-17 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Si les chercheurs en SHS disposent aujourd'hui d'une masse de données discursives et textuelles immédiatement disponibles via le web, le traitement de ces données les confronte à des questions nouvelles : quels outils statistiques et informatiques utiliser ? Quelles méthodes mettre en oeuvre ? Comment organiser ces données en corpus ? Et dans quel cadre théorique ? C'est à ces questions que cet ouvrage veut répondre en les abordant sous un angle particulier, qui est celui de l'analyse du discours. Les lecteurs sont ainsi invités à suivre un parcours méthodologique, de la définition des questions de recherche à la constitution du corpus, du choix des méthodes et des logiciels à l'analyse et à l'interprétation des phénomènes observés. Tout au long de ce parcours, l'ouvrage montre comment peuvent s'articuler et se nourrir analyse informatique et problématiques d'analyse du discours. Sont ainsi décrits en termes accessibles les problématiques et les types de corpus les plus courants dans ce domaine, les fonctionnalités des logiciels fréquemment convoqués, enfin les problèmes que l'on peut rencontrer. Des exemples repris de chapitres en chapitres permettent de suivre "pas à pas" les principes et méthodes, des "zooms" invitent le lecteur à se plonger dans l'histoire d'un concept ou à (re)découvrir une recherche, enfin, des fiches pratiques proposent une initiation aux opérations les plus techniques. Se situant dans le domaine des sciences du langage ou de l'information et de la communication, les auteurs sont tous des praticiens de l'analyse du discours, qu'ils envisagent avec des points de vue différents : celui de la science politique, de l'informatique textuelle, de la linguistique informatique, de l'énonciation, de la sémantique...

Download or read book The Hatred of Music written by Pascal Quignard and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2016-03-28 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout Pascal Quignard’s distinguished literary career, music has been a recurring obsession. As a musician he organized the International Festival of Baroque Opera and Theatre at Versailles in the early 1990s, and thus was instrumental in the rediscovery of much forgotten classical music. Yet in 1994 he abruptly renounced all musical activities. The Hatred of Music is Quignard’s masterful exploration of the power of music and what history reveals about the dangers it poses. From prehistoric chants to challenging contemporary compositions, Quignard reflects on music of all kinds and eras. He draws on vast cultural knowledge—the Bible, Greek mythology, early modern history, modern philosophy, the Holocaust, and more—to develop ten accessible treatises on music. In each of these small masterpieces the author exposes music’s potential to manipulate, to mesmerize, to domesticate. Especially disturbing is his scrutiny of the role music played in the concentration camps of Nazi Germany. Quignard’s provocative book takes on particular relevance today, as we find ourselves surrounded by music as never before in history.
Download or read book Historical Dictionary of the Berbers Imazighen written by Hsain Ilahiane and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-03-27 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Berbers, also known as Imazighen, are the ancient inhabitants of North Africa, but rarely have they formed an actual kingdom or separate nation state. Ranging anywhere between 15-50 million, depending on how they are classified, the Berbers have influenced the culture and religion of Roman North Africa and played key roles in the spread of Islam and its culture in North Africa, Spain, and Sub-Saharan Africa. Taken together, these dynamics have over time converted to redefine the field of Berber identity and its socio-political representations and symbols, making it an even more important issue in the 21st century. This second edition of Historical Dictionary of the Berbers contains a chronology, an introduction, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 200 cross-referenced entries on important personalities, places, events, institutions, and aspects of culture, society, economy, and politics. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about the Berbers.
Download or read book The Name of God Y eH oW aH Which is pronounced as it is Written I Eh oU Ah written by Gerard Gertoux and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-06-10 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The understanding of God's name YHWH is so controversial that it is eventually the controversy of controversies, or the ultimate controversy. Indeed, why most of competent Hebrew scholars propagate patently false explanations about God's name? Why do the Jews refuse to read God's name as it is written and read Adonay "my Lord" (a plural of majesty) instead of it? Why God's name is usually punctuated e, â (shewa, qamats) by the Masoretes what makes its reading impossible, because the 4 consonants of the name YHWH must have at least 3 vowels (long or short) to be read, like the words 'aDoNâY and 'eLoHîM "God" (a plural of majesty), which have 4 consonants and 3 vowels? At last, why the obvious reading "Yehowah", according to theophoric names, which all begin by Yehô-, without exception, is so despised, and why the simple biblical meaning, "He will be" from Exodus 3:14, is rejected.
