| Sammanfattning: | In Breton, one can isolate, as will show this article, three different monemes « be » : « intrinsic be », « habitual be » and « situative be ».
These verbal units, which are used in the language with a high frequency, can function either as « existential predicates » to present a unit, or to attribute a quality to a given entity by establishing a semantic connection between two non-verbal monemes. In accordance with Christos Clairis et al., we are here in the field of connective syntax, as opposed to nuclear syntax. It is thus on this distinction between connective syntax and nuclear syntax, and on the theoretical proposals of these authors vis-à-vis the point of view of André Martinet, that I have relied to present the functioning of these particular verbal units in Breton. |
