Etude contrastive de la temporalité en français et en vietnamien / Contrastive study of temporality in French and Vietnamese

Nguyen, Thuc Thanh Tin 20 September 2013 (has links)
Alors que les valeurs temporelles, aspectuelles et modales en français sont principalement exprimées par les déterminants grammaticaux du verbe, l’expression de la temporalité en vietnamien s’appuie sur des marqueurs d’ordre lexical. L’objectif de cette recherche a été de montrer la différence qui existe dans la manière d’exprimer la temporalité en français et en vietnamien et donc de concevoir l’expression des valeurs temporelles, aspectuelles et modales dans chacune de ces langues. Ces valeurs étant véhiculées par des déterminants grammaticaux du verbe en français et par des marqueurs lexicaux en vietnamien, l’analyse a consisté tout d’abord à préciser les valeurs de ces éléments dans chaque langue, après avoir rappelé les points de vue de certains prédécesseurs dans ces domaines. Ensuite, une étude contrastive d’un extrait du Petit Prince en français et de deux de ses traductions en vietnamien a permis de mettre en évidence non seulement les facteurs qui régissent la présence ou l’absence de marqueurs en vietnamien, mais aussi les changements de sens et d’effets stylistiques qu’induisent le passage d’une langue à l’autre et le choix singulier qu’est à même de faire le traducteur. Cette recherche peut donc avoir une incidence immédiate pour l’enseignement du français à des apprenants vietnamiens et plus largement à des étudiants de Français Langue Etrangère comme pour la traduction. / While temporal, aspectual and modal values in French are mainly expressed by the verb’s grammatical determinants, the expression of temporality in Vietnamese is based on lexical markers. The objective of this research was to point out the difference in the manners of expressing temporality in French and Vietnamese, and therefore to figure out the expression of temporal, aspectual and modal values in each of these languages. With these values being conveyed by grammatical determinants of the verb in French and lexical markers in Vietnamese, the analysis was first to determine the values of these elements in each language, after recalling the views of some predecessors in these areas. Then, a contrastive study of an extract of the Little Prince in French and two of its translations in Vietnamese helped to highlight not only the factors that govern the presence or absence of markers in Vietnamese, but also semantic changes and stylistic effects induced by the transition from one language to the other and the singular choice of the translator. So this research can have an immediate impact on the teaching of French language to Vietnamese learners and more widely to students learning French as a foreign language as well as for translation.

Between Verb and Preposition: Diachronic Stages of Coverbs in Mandarin Chinese

Jones, Glynis 03 April 2023 (has links)
Mandarin Chinese has long been known to possess a category of words known as ‘coverbs’ in the literature, which sit in the gray area between verb and preposition. Li and Thompson (1974) describe the historical origins of Mandarin coverbs to be full transitive verbs, despite their modern state being decidedly less verbal. They also note that coverbs are a non-homogenous class. This thesis works to establish categories of coverbs in Mandarin Chinese and their distance from true verbhood in order to understand the diachronic shift that coverbs are currently undergoing before our very eyes. I will draw on the work of scholars of Atlantic-Congo languages, Oceanic languages, and other languages of mainland Southeast Asia, to create semantic, syntactic, and morphological testing for Mandarin coverbs. Using the results of this three-pronged testing approach, I will map the results on a six-pointed verb-preposition matrix in order to visualize the space between verb and preposition and how Mandarin coverbs inhabit it. I will then use these diagrams to create a numerical score for each category of coverb and place them on a linear progression between verbhood and prepositionhood. Lastly, this work will analyze the theta roles assigned by Mandarin coverbs in each category and propose stages of diachronic development for Mandarin coverbs.
