Titre Commencer et se mettre à : une description axiologico-conceptuelle
Auteur B. Peeters
Mir@bel Revue Langue française
Numéro no 98, mai 1993 Les primitifs sémantiques, sous la direction de Bert Peeters
Page 24-47
Résumé anglais This paper examines in full detail all syntactic environments in which the Modern French aspectual verbs commencer and se mettre à are currently used. It also investigates the precise semantic differences between both verbs. Definitions are couched in semantic primitives. The author attempts to take a stand with respect to all observations made by others on these verbs over the last thirty years. Most examples are drawn from a corpus of weekly magazines and/or 20th century novels.
