  • The Structure and Placement of French Clitic Pronouns

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 ABSTRACT The order in which French clitic pronouns occur is highly idiosyncratic. Students of French have to learn to disrupt the normal Subject-Verb-Object pattern of declarative sentences, and to insert object pronouns directly before the verb. Moreover, the preverbal alignment of these clitics does not always reflect the left-to-right order of postverbal phrases to which the pronouns correspond. There are additionally certain puzzling incompatibilities among clitics. The purpose of this thesis is to offer an explanation for pre­ verbal clitic order, and not to account for impermissible clitic sequences. The problems posed by French pronouns are approached within the framework of generative grammar, especially as exemplified in Kayne’s (1975) French Syntax.

In recent years in France, a fierce debate has taken place over the gender embedded in the French language. Following the establishment of the Académie Française1 and the subsequent standardization of the French language, the masculine form of verb conjugations, nouns, pronouns, and article became the official default. The Académie Française’s official website notes that “le masculin est en français le genre non marqué et peut de ce fait désigner indifféremment les hommes et les femmes” (“Académie”).

  • L2 French Learnersâ•Ž Processing of Object Clitics

To this end, an aural French-English translation task was used to determine the extent to which university-level L2 learners of French (N=152) were able to process and encode the meaning of the object clitics me, te, la, l’, les, lui, leur, y and en. An analysis of the translations revealed variation in performance across clitic types (19-75% accuracy) and as a function of learners’ proficiency level and educational background. There was a positive relationship between L2 proficiency and clitic processing. Post-French immersion learners were better able to process and encode clitics than their post-core French peers. As a group, the learners were only 54% accurate, with their mistranslations of object clitics indicating incomplete use of gender, number, animacy and case markings to link these forms to their co-referents. An under-reliance on animacy and agreement cues by these L2 learners suggests the need for explicit instruction on the importance of syntactic and discourse-pragmatic information in clitic comprehension.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by ASU Digital Repository Subject Doubling in Spoken French by Eleonore Blanquart A Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts Approved April 2012 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Helene Ossipov, Co-Chair Mariana Bahtchevanova, Co-Chair Elly Van Gelderen ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY May 2012 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to explore the syntax and pragmatics of subject doubling in spoken French. Many prescriptivists have considered it a redundant and ungrammatical form, but over the years, it has gained more interest from syntacticians. It is widely acknowledged that dislocations involve topics, but the position of these structures is very disputed. Some linguists believe in base generation while others state there is movement. The status of subject clitics also comes into play and their role as arguments or agreement markers is crucial to understanding the issues at stake with a topic analysis. It is often argued that the clitics are undergoing a linguistic cycle whereby they lose their function of argument, and need to be reinforced by disjunct pronouns. In this study, I examined which analyses support my data and I attempted to determine what structures tend to be most dislocated by looking at the environment of the discourse in a corpus of spoken French. i ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I am greatly indebted to the patience, knowledge and support of Dr. Elly Van Gelderen and Dr. Mariana Bahtchevanova throughout this experience. I am also very grateful to Dr. Helene Ossipov.

Cheat Sheet. A few adjectives have a fifth form, viz. Tips and useful information on driving in and through France - motorways, tolls, where to stay It is characteristic of literary rather than colloquial style. Nonetheless, there are some such nouns that retain their grammatical gender regardless of natural gender; personne 'person' is always feminine, while at least in "standard" French professeur 'teacher' is always masculine. Number: A French noun can be singular or plural, regardless of the gender, and the adjective must match that. For example: chou cabbage becomes choux cabbages , and bijou jewel becomes bijoux jewels. If the basic form ends in -s, -x , or -z , an adjective is left unchanged in the masculine plural cf. French prepositions 3. Main article: French pronouns. Articles and determiners agree in gender and number with the noun they determine; unlike with nouns, this inflection is made in speech as well as in writing. They serve the same purpose in French and English, but they are very different in two respects. Prepositions are small words e. Here we explain all the important rules in a brief and straight-forward way. For example: amoureux in love becomes amoureuse , heureux fat becomes heureuse , and affreux atrocious becomes affreuse. These normally have -aux in the masculine plural cf. In terms of spelling, the plural is usually formed from the singular by adding the letter - s cf.
