Abstract EN

A plethora of studies have been conducted to tackle the different variables that believed to be intimately related to pronunciation accuracy.

Notwithstanding, very few studies have been raised to scrutinize the role of gender in the area of learning a foreign language.

This paper seeks to investigate to what extent gender is entwined with the learners of English as a foreign language (EFL for short), particularly in the area of phonetics, or pronunciation.

We tried to study the influence of gender identities in the pronunciation accuracy of Algerian EFL students.

Adopting the community of practice perspective as a framework, the findings reveal that the great majority of female students tend to display particular styles via outperforming in the articulation of certain sounds.

Abstract FRE

Une pléthore d'études ont été menées pour s'attaquer aux différentes variables supposées être intimement liées à l'exactitude de la prononciation.

Néanmoins, très peu d'études ont été réalisées pour examiner le rôle du genre dans l'apprentissage d'une langue étrangère.

Cet article cherche à déterminer dans quelle mesure le genre est étroitement lié aux apprenants de l'anglais comme langue étrangère (EFL en abrégé), en particulier dans le domaine de la phonétique ou de la prononciation.

Nous avons essayé d'étudier l'influence des identités de genre sur l'exactitude de la prononciation des étudiants algériens EFL.

En adoptant la perspective de la communauté de pratique comme cadre théorique, les résultats montrent que la grande majorité des étudiantes ont tendance à afficher des styles particuliers en surperformant l’articulation de certains sons
