Résumé anglais This paper describes the correlative relatives of Kita Maninka, a West African language inwhich this type of relatives, which involves a relativizer originating from a former demonstrative, constitutes the only available relativization strategy. The author argues that nospecial notion of ‘correlative construction is necessary to account for these correlative relatives, which lend themselves to a straight forward description according to which there lativized clause behaves with respect to the matrix clause like an NP whose only particularity is that it cannot appear in positions in which it would receive a semantic role, andcan only appear in the extraposition construction.
