Auxiliarité secondaire et verbes semi-auxiliaires
...Show More Authors

Dans la langue française, une forme d'auxiliarité, composée de deux éléments cohérents l'auxiliant et l'auxilié, fournit, en effet, à la phrase une diversité significative et structurale. L'auxiliarité, renvoie à l'unification de deux éléments grammaticaux afin de localiser l'énoncé sur l'axe du temps, d'aspect ou de mode. É. Benveniste définit l'auxiliarité en : « Il s'agit d'une forme linguistique unitaire qui se réalise, à travers des paradigmes entiers, en  deux éléments, dont chacun assume une partie des fonctions grammaticales, et qui sont à la fois liés et autonomes, distincts et complémentaires »[1]. Ces deux éléments d'auxiliarité possèdent donc sa propre fonction, à condition que l'un accomplisse l'autre, ainsi la phrase produite réussit à atteindre son objectif.

Abstract

This research studies the secondary auxiliary verbs or semi-auxiliary verbs as they are termed in French, their composition and significance. The semi-auxiliary verbs are related to the infinitive (son auxilié). Some of these verbs have their own prepositions. Therefore these verbs comprise different forms to give different meanings, with differences of the main auxiliaries  être et avoir which are associated with the past participle (participe passé) to express past times only.

 The semi-auxiliary verbs are used in the sentence to express the near future or the recent past: aller and venir de + infintive. On the other hand, they express the aspect of the verb, we recourse to the verb commencer à  designate the beginning of the act or être en train de of the saying that the act is not yet accomplished, or the act is completed with use of the verb  finir de.

 The last case of these semi-auxiliaries uses the modality of the verb to express either obligation or probability with verb devoir or the possibility with the verb pouvoir. Moreover, there are other verbs that can be used in this field like sembler, faire, vouloir, that add other important meanings. Consequently, the variety of semi-auxiliary verbs promotes diversity of structures and meanings that help to enrich the language and enhance the expression.

The Use of Ergative Verbs to Background the Role of the Agent in two Selected Short Stories: A Syntactico-Semantic Study
...Show More Authors

The study explores the use of ergative verbs in constructing clauses and their impact on the backgrounding of the agent's role in two selected short stories. Contrary to hypothesis No. 1, the research indicates that changes in sentence patterns don't affect the meaning of the process. Additionally, hypothesis No. 2 is refuted as the middle structure is found to highlight the agent's role in the science fiction short story, Terra Infirmum, rather than concealing it as hypothesized for "The Invisible Man." The analysis uncovers that writers utilize ergative processes to narrate stories in various ways, including transitive/active voice, intransitive/active voice, and transitive/passive voice. Furthermore, the findings suggest that writers emp
