Linguistic atlases

edit
  • ALF: Atlas linguistique de la France, accessible via CartoDialect (currently broken) and via SYMILA (in part). The fieldwork was conducted from 1897 to 1901. A description of its transcription system is available here.
  • GPSR: Glossaire des patois de la Suisse romande, accessible via UniNE. The fieldwork was conducted from 1899 to 1924. A description of its transcription system is available here under Aide, and various examples are available here.
  • AIS: Atlante linguistico ed etnografico dell'Italia e della Svizzera meridionale, accessible via AIS, reloaded (modernized version) and NavigAIS (original version). The fieldwork was conducted from 1919 to 1928. The original transcriptions have been converted to IPA by the AIS, reloaded team.
  • ALLy: Atlas linguistique et ethnographique du Lyonnais, accessible via ortolang.fr (all maps as separate files) and via Atlex (in part). The fieldwork was conducted from 1945 to 1948. It uses effectively the same transcription system as the ALF; some commentary on this can be found here.
  • APV: Atlas des patois Valdôtains, accessible via patoisvda.org. The fieldwork was carried out from 1973 to 2001. The published parts use IPA. Publication is ongoing as of 2024.
  • ALEPO: Atlante Linguistico ed Etnografico del Piemonte Occidentale. Accessible via alepo.unito.it. The fieldwork was conducted from 1980 to 1991. The published parts use IPA. Publication is ongoing as of 2024.
  • VIV (VIVALDI): Vivaio acustico delle lingue e dei dialetti d'Italia. Accessible via hu-berlin.de. A description of its transcription system is available here. The fieldwork began in 1992 in Sicily and as of 2024 is ongoing in the centre and south of the mainland.

Notes on transcription

edit

The ALF, GPSR, and ALLy often omit primary stress in monosyllabic words or paroxytones. That is, stress is marked in a consistent way only in positions where speakers of French, such as most of the transcribers, would not expect it. This inconsistency has been fixed for the transcriptions added to Wiktionary.

Stress marks have been placed directly before the affected vowels to avoid adding syllable breaks not found in the cited sources.

The following are represented the same way since since few, if any, of the cited sources distinguish them (let alone consistently):

  • [a] and [ä] (both as [a])
  • [V] and [Vˑ] (both as [V])
  • [SF] and [A] (both as [SF])[note 1]

Writing systems

edit

ORB

edit

The Orthographe de réference B devised by Dominique Stich. An overview is available here. This is used for lemmatization on Wiktionary since no other (at least self-styled) “orthographe supradialectale” is available for Franco-Provençal.

The ORB comes in two tiers: broad and narrow, or large and serrée in French. The former features general spellings intended for any dialect, and the latter features various optional modifications intended to represent certain local features. For instance téta is a general broad spelling while tétha is a narrow variant that can be used to represent regional forms of the word with a fricative instead of [-t-]. (This variation reflects different resolutions of an original [-st-]; cf. Latin testa.)

Graphie BREL

edit

A semi-phonetic writing system devised by the Bureau Régional pour l'Ethnologie et la Linguistique. An overview is available here. Used on PVA for the Valdôtain dialects.

Graphie de Conflans

edit

A semi-phonetic writing system devised by the Groupe de Conflans (later merged with the Centre de la Culture Savoyarde). An overview is available here. Used in the DFP for the Bressan dialects.

Groupings

edit

In the absence of any scientific classification of the Franco-Provençal (sub-)dialects, a series of arbitrary regional groupings has been adapted here from Stich 2003.[1]
