Sensibilité aux erreurs accentuelles à valeur morphologique vs vocaliques en espagnol L2 chez les francophones : quels effets en compréhension orale ? by SYRINE DAOUSSI

“… Ce travail vise à apporter une contribution au débat sur la “surdité accentuelle” observée chez les francophones face aux contrastes accentuels (Dupoux et al., 1997, 2001, 2008). D’autres études ont toutefois montré que les apprenants francophones n’étaient pas si “sourds” et donc capables d’encoder l’accent lexical au sein de leurs représentations lexicales (Mora et al., 1997 ; Alfano et al., 2010; Muñoz García 2010; Schwab, Llisterri, 2010, 2011).  …”
