摘要: 本文基于法语和汉语塞音系统的异同，通过感知实验发现学习者的感知困难、观察其感知模式及法语语言水平对感知模式的影响。结果发现，中国学习者从听觉上区分法语浊塞音和不送气清塞音时表现出很大的困难；三组清浊塞音对比音的感知模式相近，但是从发音类型来看，浊塞音的感知普遍好于清塞音；三组法语塞音在不同程度上与汉语不送气清塞音发生“范畴合并”；学习者对法语塞音的感知并未随着语言能力的提高而改善，反而出现一定程度的倒退。
Abstract: Based on the similarities and differences between stops in Chinese and French, the present study suggests potential difficulties in the perception of French voiced stops and non-aspirated stops by Chinese learners. Two perceptual tests were conducted to verify their difficulties and to investigate their perceptual patterns and the effect of their French language level. The results showed that Chinese learners had big difficulties in discriminating French stop contrasts; the perception of three stop contrasts was similar, but the perception of voiced stops was significantly better than that of non-aspirated stops; it was observed that varying degrees of phonetic category conflation occurred with French stops assimilated to Chinese non-aspirated stop category. The last one was used to perceive both French voiced and non-aspirated stops. The language level of learners had certain impact on their perception patterns, which was mainly reflected by the significant differences between the high-level group and the other two groups. To our surprise, the French stop perception of learners did not improve with the improvement of their language ability but showed some decline.
