• Résumé : The present paper examines the voicing effects in Modern Arabic. Data, consisting of 78 different VC syllable contexts (36 voiced syllables and 42 voiceless syllables), was produced by 16 speakers. 3736 tokens were analyzed, they showed that voicing affects the duration of the consonant and the vowel. The voiced consonant is shorter (83 ms), compared with the voiceless consonant (118 ms), whereas the vowel is longer when followed by a voiced consonant (103 ms), compared with a voiceless consonant (86 ms). A hierarchy was observed for this correlation to be dependent on manner of articulation (stop vs. fricative) and on vowel quantity (long vs. short).
