L’utilisation des temps verbaux étude comparative entre étudiants francophones et étudiants araboph.ones.

Abstract

This study focuses on French and its different practices in the Maghreb and more particularly in Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia, a geographical area where this language is in continual competition with Arabic (and its varieties), Berber, English, Spanish, etc. It is for this reason that this research is said to establish a comparative study from semasiological and onomasiological point of views. This is also an attempt to measure the inter-lexical distance between the three varieties of French language spoken by French-speaking journalists from the three Maghreb countries by means of combining linguistic approaches and statistical techniques. Correspondingly, the methodological procedure is based on a written corpus meeting spatio-temporal criteria. The author proceeds for grouping the neological lexies listed in French-speaking Maghreb newspapers then classify them according to lexicographical constructs of paper and digital versions.
