| Résumé anglais |
Estelle Moline accounts for a broad panel of comme-constructions. She shows how the presence of the comme morpheme steadily correlates with the suspension of assertion. She first describes the cases where comme corresponds to the qu- manner proform : in such cases, no assertion is possible within a simple clause, and embedded clauses trigger an indefinite presupposition. She then deals with constructions where comme is not a qu- manner proform : here, in complex clauses, the presupposed content of the embedded clause is definite ; in simple clauses, comme generally shows a kind of distance-taking from the assertion.
