  • The noncausal/causal alternation and genealogical affiliation

    Open AccessMarc Allassonnière-Tang, Sylvain Robert et al.ARTICLELinguistique et langues africaines2022

    The noncausal/causal alternation is the pairing of two verb forms that refer to the same core event but differ in the absence vs. presence of a causer for this event (e.g. rise vs. raise, open (intr.) vs. open (tr.), die vs. kill). Languages differ in their overall preferences among the possible strategies for coding this alternation. This study uses machine-learning methods (clustering and tree-based computational classifiers) to investigate the…

  • Space in Languages

    Space in Languages: Linguistic Systems and Cognitive Categories Paris, Sylvain…BOOKSpace in Languages2006

    Space is presently the focus of much research and debate across disciplines, including linguistics, anthropology, psychology, and philosophy. One strong feature of this collection is to bring together theoretical and empirical contributions from these varied scientific traditions, with the collective aim of addressing fundamental questions at the forefront of the current literature: the nature of space in language, the linguistic relativity of sp…

  • Deitic space in Wolof

    Sylvain Robert, Stéphane RobertCHAPTERSpace in Languages2006

    The role of deictic reference in Wolof is particularly interesting for two reasons.First, it permeates the entire system of the language (in noun determination, predication and subordination).Second, this language has a suffix which indicates the absence of localization in the space of the speaker -which plays a special role in the construction of various relationships of syntactic dependency.Thus, in Wolof reference depends on a dual mechanism o…

  • Amateurs et professionnels dans le basket français (1944-1975)

    Sylvain RobertARTICLEGenèses1999

    Amateurs and Professionals in French - Basketball (1944-1975): Quarrels over Definition A commonplace reading of the history of sports would have us believe that professionalism, which at first was marginal and later took over the field, has replaced pure amateurism. Yet, it is important to grasp the malleability of the categories of perception and action affecting ч these nominal realities, by relating it to the area of national athletics. When …

  • Grammaire fractale et sémantique transcatégorielle

    Sylvain Robert, Robert StephaneARTICLELangages1999

    The nature of grammatical semantics and its relationships to lexical semantics are approached here through the problem of synchronie grammaticalization. Synchronie use of morphems in different syntactic categories is then analyzed in terms of fractals and topology, illustrated by examples from Wolof. Thus the functional model of fractal grammar, combining "scale invariance" and "scale properties", accounts for the semantic unity and functional fl…

  • Structure et sémantique de la focalisation

    Sylvain Robert, Stéphane RobertARTICLEBulletin de la Société de…1993

    In the first place, this paper shows that utterances with focus take different meanings at odds with a unitary definition of focus. These meanings fall into three main areas: identification, explanation and intensive exclamation. A new definition of focus is then put forward, as a specific mode of identification: assertion consists in the qualitative designation of an element whose existence is pre-asserted. This analysis accounts for the differe…
