摘要
We introduce a method for investigating sound change using audio proxies and interpolation between them. Using this method leads us to consider the possible trajectories of attested sound changes in acoustic space and allows us to run speech perception experiments with the interpolated sounds to examine the patterning of perceptual judgements. We discuss the implications for understanding rate and magnitude of sound changes and present the approach as one which might fruitfully be applied to a wide range of studies. Nous introduisons ici une m & eacute;thode d'analyse des changements phon & eacute;tiques qui utilise des substitutions sonores et des interpolations entre elles. Cette m & eacute;thode nous fait examiner les trajectoires de changements phon & eacute;tiques attest & eacute;s dans un espace acoustique et nous permet de mener des exp & eacute;riences de perception de la parole & agrave; partir de ces sons interpol & eacute;s afin d'examiner comment s'organise l'& eacute;valuation perceptive. La m & eacute;thode propos & eacute;e ici a des implications importantes concernant notre compr & eacute;hension du taux et de l'ampleur des modifications phon & eacute;tiques. Nous croyons qu'on peut la transposer & agrave; d'autres & eacute;tudes. Wir stellen eine Methode zur Untersuchung von Lautverschiebungen vor, die Audio-Stellvertreter und Interpolationen zwischen diesen verwendet. Diese Methode wirft neues Licht auf m & ouml;gliche Entwicklungsverl & auml;ufe bezeugter Lautverschiebungen im akustischen Raum. Au ss erdem f & uuml;hren wir Experimente zur Sprachwahrnehmung mit den interpolierten T & ouml;nen durch, um die Struktur von Wahrnehmungsurteilen zu untersuchen. Wir diskutieren die Schlussfolgerungen, um die Geschwindigkeit und das Ausma ss von Lautverschiebungen zu begreifen. Wir gehen schlie ss lich davon aus, dass diese Methode auf ein breites Spektrum von Studien angewendet werden kann.
