Abstract

Bien que travailler sur la prononciation correcte dans l'enseignement d'une langue
étrangère soit souvent négligé, il existe aujourd'hui diverses méthodes pour améliorer la
prononciation d'une langue étrangère. Il est extrêmement important de travailler sur la
prononciation correcte, mais il est tout aussi important de travailler sur la perception correcte
des sons d'une langue étrangère, notamment ceux qui ne sont pas présents dans nos langues
maternelles. Non seulement est-il possible d'améliorer la prononciation et la perception d’une
langue étrangère, mais il est également bien souhaitable de le faire afin d'éviter les malentendus
dans la communication. Dans cette étude de perception, 30 étudiants de langue française et 32
étudiants de langue portugaise ont participé. Dans la recherche, deux tests ont été utilisés dans
chacune des deux enquêtes, un test d'écoute et un test visuel, qui nous ont donné une image
générale de la perception des voyelles nasales a et o, mais aussi de la voyelle orale /a/, présentes
dans les deux langues, ainsi qu'une comparaison entre ces deux groupes d'étudiants. Bien que
les résultats obtenus ne confirment pas toutes les hypothèses de cette recherche, cette recherche
peut ouvrir de nouvelles portes dans la recherche de la perception de la voyelle nasale a dans
ces deux langues.

Abstract (english)

Although working on correct pronunciation in teaching a foreign language is often
neglected, today there are various methods to improve the pronunciation of a foreign language.
It is extremely important to work on one’s own pronunciation, but it is equally important to
work on one’s own perception of the sounds of a foreign language, especially those that are not
present in one’s own mother tongue. Not only is it possible to improve one's own pronunciation
and perception, but it is also highly desirable to do so in order to avoid misunderstandings in
communication. In this perception study, 30 students of the French language and 32 students of
the Portuguese language participated. In the research, two tests were used in each of the two
surveys, a listening test and a reading test, which gave us a general picture of the perception of
the nasal vowels a and o, but also the oral vowel /a/, present in both languages, as well as a
comparison between these two groups of students. Although not all the obtained results
confirmed the hypotheses of this research, this research can open new doors in researching the
perception of nasal vowel a in these two languages.

Abstract (croatian)

Iako je rad na pravilnome izgovoru u podučavanju stranoga jezika često zanemarivan,
danas postoje razne metode kako bi se izgovor stranog jezika poboljšao. Iznimno je važno raditi
na vlastitome izgovoru, no isto je tako važno raditi na vlastitoj percepciji glasova stranoga
jezika, a posebice onih koji nisu prisutni u materinskome jeziku. Ne samo da je moguće
poboljšati vlastiti izgovor i percepciju, već je to i vrlo poželjno kako ne bi došlo do nesporazuma
u komunikaciji. U ovome istraživanju percepcije sudjelovalo je 30 studenata francuskoga jezika
te 32 studenta portugalskoga jezika. U istraživanju su korištena dva testa u svakoj od dviju
anketa, slušni test i test čitanja, koji su nam dali općenitu sliku o percepciji nazalnih vokala a i
o, ali i oralnog vokala /a/, prisutnih u oba jezika kao i jednu usporedbu između ove dvije grupe
studenata. Iako svi dobiveni rezultati nisu u potpunosti potvrdili hipoteze ovoga istraživanja,
ono može otvoriti nova vrata u istraživanju percepcije nazalnog vokala a u ova dva jezika.
