| Résumé anglais |
The purpose of this paper is to show that asymmetric ou (in French) is systematically followed by a negative context. This assertion is illustrated by the use of adjectives with ambiguous interpretations (e.g. the adjective relatif) as well as adjectives with no negative connotations (e.g. important and moyen). With the first kind of adjectives, it is shown that the word after the asymmetric ou will systematically select the negative sense of relatif. With the second kind of adjectives, it is shown that the term following the asymmetric ou needs to be qualified by a negative term so that a grammatically acceptable sentence can be built.
