Nous répondons affirmativement à une question d’Allouche et Shallit en montrant l’existence de la fréquence logarithmique des lettres et des mots dans une suite morphique.

We study the logarithmic frequency of letters and words in morphic sequences and show that this frequency must always exist, answering a question of Allouche and Shallit.
