LES LOCUTIONS ADVERBIALES DANS LES ÉCRITS JOURNALISTIQUES FRANÇAIS

Abstract

French adverbial phrases used as multi-word units can occur in different types of texts. In this paper, we have chosen to study the nature and frequency of adverbial phrase use as relational markers in press articles. The paper is divided into two parts: First, we present the corpus, the recurrent adverbial phrasings in journalistic texts, and the methodology. Second, we focus on the two most frequently used adverbial phrases in this type of text, namely d'ailleurs and en effet, as multi-word relational markers.
