Summary

Presents the French phonetics system in its entirety.

Full Description

This class presents the French phonetic system in its entirety with the difficulties that it presents (hence the theoretic approach: 1 hour in class; and in practice: 1 hour in the laboratory).

This class will therefore deal with the vocal, consonantal, syllabic, and prosodic characteristics of French and will require the active participation of the students.

Students will be asked to purchase the necessary booklets to effectively follow the class.

Original Language Description

Ce cours traitera donc des caractéristiques vocaliques, consonantiques, syllabiques et prosodiques du français et demandera une part active des étudiants.

Il sera demandé aux étudiants d'acheter les fascicules indispensables pour suivre efficacement le cours.
