“…There are a number of other non-standard features present; the question is, if these features are not related to the regional substrate, what are theyOE Most of them could be described as 'connected speech processes' (cf. Armstrong, 2001: 84), or facilités de prononciation, as Gadet (1989Gadet ( , 1992 has termed them, such as elision of schwa and liquids, cluster reductions and intersegmental coordination processes such as voicing assimilation (Coveney, 2001: 139-140;Laver, 1994), which readily occur in all but the most formal (especially scripted) styles of spoken French. Such features are therefore generally associated with français familier, but when they occur with great frequency, this can lead to characterisation of the variety (and the speaker) as populaire (cf.…”

ab st rac tThis article addresses the contention that the regional accents of northern France have become increasingly uniform ('levelled') in recent decades. A qualitative, micro-level analysis is carried out on the speech of two older working-class male informants, one from each of the cities of Nancy and Rennes. To contextualise the data, which are drawn from sociolinguistic interviews, previous accounts of the relevant français régionaux are summarised. Close examination of non-standard features in the present data shows that whereas the Nancy informant displays several localised traits, the Rennes speaker's accent is more typical of general colloquial and lower-class usage. While regionally marked variants are disappearing, the degree of accent levelling varies according to region, and thus according to substrate dialect. i nt roduc t i onIn recent years, levelling of dialect and accent has become a focus of research and discussion amongst sociolinguists and dialectologists, notably with reference to British English (cf. for example Docherty, 1999a, 1999b;Watt and Milroy, 1999, who give a concise history of the study of levelling (p.

(Français)Cet article examine trois sujets de la grammaire française : le mode, les déterminants et les prépositions qui, pour les étudiants danois, posent souvent de grands problèmes de compréhension et d'acquisition. L'examen des trois sujets se veut fonctionnel mais prend également en considération des aspects variationnistes, ceci pour illustrer nos idées de la conception d'une nouvelle grammaire française destinée aux études universitaires en français. Les aspects fonctionnel et variationniste ne représentent pas la même pertinence pour la description des trois sujets examinés, mais une description fonctionnelle qui prend en considération les variations linguistiques de la langue française contribuerait à une compréhension plus nuancée de la grammaire française. Abstract (English)This article examines three grammatical themes in French: mode, determiners and prepositions, often challenging the acquisition of grammatical comprehension for Danish students. The approach of the three subjects is functional, but takes also variational aspects into consideration in order to illustrate our ideas of how to conceive a new French grammar intended for university students of French. The functional and variational aspects are not equally relevant for the three examined subjects, but a functional description which takes the linguistic variations of the French language into consideration would contribute to a more balanced comprehension of the French grammar.

“…Nous retrouvons ainsi dans cette variété de français la tendance à la fixité de l'ordre SVO observée en français ordinaire et populaire (Gadet, 1989(Gadet, et 1992. Cette tendance se manifeste en ce qui concerne les pronoms clitiques sujets par l'absence d'enclise et pour les clitiques objets par la réduction des séquences de clitiques devant le verbe en faveur de l'emploi d'un pronom tonique postposé ou de l'effacement du pronom objet.…”
