last update – 13.dec.2019

Je suis linguiste, Directeur de Recherche au CNRS et Chargé de Cours à l’Université Sorbonne Nouvelle-Paris 3.
Je travaille essentiellement dans le cadre de la Phonologie de Laboratoire, sur la théorie de la syllabe (en m’intéressant plus spécifiquement aux cas des syllabes sans voyelles), la gémination consonantique, et les articulations laryngales. Mon principal domaine d’expertise est la phonétique et la phonologie du tachlhit, langue amazighe parlée au Maroc. Mes autres sujets d’intérêt comprennent la phonétique du mehri, une langue sud-arabique moderne, ainsi que la phonétique et la phonologie du langage sifflé. Également intéressé par la théorie des traits distinctifs, j’ai été co-éditeur de ‘Where do phonological features come from?’ et ‘Features in phontics and phonology’.

I am a linguist, Director of Research at the CNRS and Adjunct-Professor at the Sorbonne Nouvelle-Paris 3 University.
I mainly work within the Laboratory Phonology framework, on syllable theory (focusing on syllables without vowels), consonant gemination and laryngeal articulations. My main area of expertise is the phonetics and phonology of Tashlhiyt, an Amazigh language spoken in Morocco. My other topics of interest include the phonetics of Mehri, a Modern South Arabian language, and the phonetics and phonology of whistled speech. Also interested in feature theory, I was co-editor of ‘Where do phonological features come from?‘ and ‘Features in phonetics and phonology‘.
