This study examined the impact on speech processing of regional phonetic/phonological variation in the listener's native language. The perception of the /e/-/epsilon/ and /o/-/partial derivative/ contrasts, produced by standard but not southern French native speakers, was investigated in these two populations. A repetition priming experiment showed that the latter but not the former perceived words such as /epe/ and /ep epsilon/ as homophones. In contrast, both groups perceived the two words of /o/-/partial derivative/ minimal pairs (/pom/-/p partial derivative m/) as being distinct. Thus, standard-French words can be perceived differently depending on the listener's regional accent. (c) 2007 Acoustical Society of America.
