- PublicationAccès libreDistribution of modal expressions of possibility and necessity in three encyclopedias covering two diachronic spans (18th and 21st centuries)(2020-6-16)
; ; ; ; The aim of this paper is to measure to what extent the modalities of possibility and necessity are represented in three French encyclopedic corpora covering two diachronic spans, the 18th and the 21st centuries, by applying a statistical approach to linguistic data. Using log-likelihood, we will measure over- and under-representation of morphological and lexical modal forms in those encyclopedias, as well as their association with other linguistic items. Correspondence analysis will then be used to give a more holistic view of these associations. It will be shown that the two types of modality studied are used differently in the 18th century encyclopedic corpus compared to the two corpora from the 21st century. - PublicationAccès libreDiscursive Functions of French Modal Forms: What Can Correspondence Analysis Tell Us About Genre and Diachronic Variation?(Springer, 2018-6-18)
; ;Dolamic, Ljiljana; ; Our aim is to describe discursive functions of a set of French modal forms by establishing their combinatory profiles based on their co-occurrence with different connectors. We then compare these profiles using correspondence analysis in order to find evidence of genre and diachronic variation. The use of these forms is explored in contexts of informative discourse within two distinctly different genres—contemporary written press and encyclopedic discourse—as well as within two diachronic spans. - PublicationMétadonnées seulement

- PublicationAccès libreModal forms expressing probability and their combination with concessive sequences in French and Italian(: Institute of Computer Science Polish Academy of Sciences, 2015-12-10)
; ; This paper deals with the combination between modal forms and concessive constructions in French and Italian, which we investigated in the framework of a tool-based approach to the linguistic analysis of corpora. To this end, we analyzed the frequency of forms expressing epistemic value and compared it to the frequency of their co-occurrence with the conjunction mais/ma (‘but’), seeking regularities in the link between this co-occurrence and the ability of an epistemic form to convey new meanings.
