Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In this article, we present the partial results of a survey of French pronunciation in southeastern France, where the local variants are more and more threatened by standard French (SF). In order to document this process, we have gathered a corpus of French spoken in the Nice area; several generations of speakers are represented. It was thus possible to observe, in apparent time, the evolution of certain features of southeastern French (SEP) pronunciation, particularly mid and low vowels, which are the focus of this article. A Labovian analysis was undertaken to determine if the southeastern pronunciation features mentioned above are being lost and, if so, at what speed and according to which stylistic and sociolinguistic criteria.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
