| Résumé: | This study compares the handling of the French and Creole verbal systems in the famous closing scene of the first part of L’Étranger by Camus (1942) adapted by Confiant (Moun Andewò-a, 2012), in which the Arab is murdered. The difficulty posed in this study mainly stems from the fundamental difference between French, an inflected language, and the non-inflected Creole. The article’s main proposition is to first explore the ways in which the tenses, modes and aspect of the verbs are used in each of the languages, and then to assess the stylistic effects and repercussions of these on the interpretation of the narrative.
