This study describes the prosody of French spoken in the Vaud canton, a francophone area of Switzerland. It aims to provide information on a dialect of which intonational patterns and speaking rate have never before been described in phonetic terms, and tries to understand the features contributing to it being perceived as a non-standard variety of French.

520 $a This study describes the prosody of French spoken in the Vaud canton, a francophone area of Switzerland. It aims to provide information on a dialect of which intonational patterns and speaking rate have never before been described in phonetic terms, and tries to understand the features contributing to it being perceived as a non-standard variety of French.
520 $a A study of read speech showed differences in articulation rate with standard French speakers generally reading faster than Vaudois informants. Also, it revealed distinctions in text-to-tune alignment concerning AP-initial and AP-final LH points in standard French configurations found across groups of standard French and Vaudois speakers. The Swiss group appears to position the AP-initial L and H points later in the phrase, but the AP-final L and H points earlier than the French group.
520 $a The findings for the study on Vaudois spontaneous speech may account for this alignment difference. An analysis of the tonal alignment of each point in the major phrase-final LHL pattern helped to determine their phonological status as perhaps a bitonal pitch accent (LH*) followed by a boundary tone (L%). An optional H phrase tone was found to sometimes occur as well. The possible insertion of these boundary tones may create the need to align LH* earlier in Vaudois French.
