Résumé : The data presented in this paper show that the French-speaking deaf encounter special difficulties in the production of the prevoiced /bdg/ which require a precise temporal delay between the onset of laryngeal vibrations and the release of oral closure. The rapid sequential delivery of these two articulatory gestures enables the speaker to sustain the voice up to the end of the closure, which has decisive importance for voicing perception. It is also shown that the speakers who correctly produce prevoicing can generally perceive the voicing feature. Although the place of articulation of the stops is not better perceived than their voicing category, most of the moderately-deaf subjects in this experiment can produce the place distinctions perfectly. The role of perceptual feedbacks in the mastering of articulatory gestures is discussed.
