French /ø-u/ contrast in Japanese learners with/without gesture feedback in monosyllables: a descriptive acoustic study

Résumé

This study investigated French /ø/-/u/ contrast produced by 2 native speakers (NS) and 12 Japanese- speaking learners; 7 of them received 6 lessons on these vowels with hand and arm gesture feedback (GG), and the others 6 lessons with articulatory explanation (AG). Acoustic measurements (F1, F2, F3, F1/F2 distance, Euclidean distance - ED) of 2 repetitions of /dø/, /ʁø/, /du/ and /ʁu/ are compared to /ø/ and /u/ in isolation, before, after and two months after the lessons. F2 of /u/ decreases more for GG. F3 of /ø/ decreases more for AG. F1/F2 distance is smaller for /ʁø/ and /ʁu/ than for the other monosyllables, while it is smaller and closer to NS for /u/ produced by 4 learners in GG than the others. F2 of /u/ improved due to visual and kinesthetic (gesture) modalities.
