href=\"https:\/\/lacademie.tv\/conferences\/grammaire-scolaire-linguistique\">linguists<\/a>\u00a0.\u00a0For these\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.franceinter.fr\/emissions\/tu-parles\">language specialists<\/a>\u00a0, grammar is simply a map describing the territory before them, without any prescription.\u00a0In other words, it is a description of the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.uoh.fr\/front\/ressource_view?id=db15025a-f2fd-4298-9616-547de48787ad\">language<\/a>\u00a0that makes visible the existence of several forms in competition to describe this or that reality.<\/p>\n<p>Languages \u200b\u200bare indeed animated by a great diversity.\u00a0The best known factor of variation is the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/francaisdenosregions.com\/\">regional<\/a>\u00a0level\u00a0\u00a0: one can for example evoke the famous example of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.20minutes.fr\/societe\/2467415-20190307-entre-pain-chocolat-chocolatine-francais-tranche\"><em>chocolatine<\/em><\/a>\u00a0in front of\u00a0<em>pain au

which often give rise to heated debates.\u00a0In short, a language is not homogeneous and it is interesting to define its contours.<\/p>\n<p>The activity of linguists resides in the search for all possible forms and their integration in an analytical framework.\u00a0The traditional activity of grammarians, on the other hand, goes against this objective.\u00a0It consists, in fact, in choosing the correct form from a set of possible forms, without aiming at completeness.<\/p>\n<p>Linguists therefore invite to a journey in the language as it stands, with its Gothic cathedrals and its working class cities.\u00a0The challenge is to make the overall architecture as consistent as possible.\u00a0However, in the current state of knowledge, it is impossible to describe all the turns of French in a unified manner.<\/p>\n<p>While there is a map of France, there is no map of French.\u00a0This is the reason why we embarked on a project which attempts to go around research work in French linguistics: the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.encyclogram.fr\/\">French grammar encyclopedia<\/a>\u00a0(EGF).\u00a0Initially, the target audience was mainly students.\u00a0But the resource, in free access, allows all those who wish to discover the French language from a different angle.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Change your point of view on language<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The promoters of the project decided to embark on this somewhat crazy adventure over fifteen years ago: to gather, on electronic media, the heritage of grammatical research acquired in French linguistics, in the form of summaries, easily searchable and regularly updated, and without advertising.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-52962\"

fingertips all the rules of the past participle agreement, you will inevitably discover unsuspected details of the functioning of French.<\/p>\n<p>For example, in French, it is possible to say\u00a0<em>the next season<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0<em>the next season<\/em>\u00a0.\u00a0But if you look more closely, these two turns do not refer to the same areas.\u00a0<em>The next season<\/em>\u00a0will be used to talk about a television series while\u00a0<em>the next season<\/em>\u00a0may apply to a transfer of football player.\u00a0Similarly, an old mill is a mill converted into a building for another use while an old mill is still a mill.\u00a0We can see here that the place of adjectives has an influence on their interpretation, and that this is an integral part of grammar.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps you will shout out loud when you realize that the linguists are working on statements like\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.encyclogram.fr\/notx\/008\/008_Notice.php\">&#8220;you don&#8217;t want to come&#8221;<\/a>\u00a0(without\u00a0<em>not<\/em>\u00a0),\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.encyclogram.fr\/notx\/002\/002_Notice.php\">&#8220;you saw who&#8221;<\/a>\u00a0(in addition to &#8220;who did you see&#8221; ) or even &#8220;people they go to the supermarket&#8221; (what is called a\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.encyclogram.fr\/notx\/001\/001_Notice.php\">dislocation<\/a>\u00a0of the subject).\u00a0It is not a question of validating or not these formulations, but of describing what is produced.<\/p>\n<p>These expressions being attested, and even in the majority in certain speech situations, linguists must take them into account when mapping French.\u00a0Could we imagine a natural science denying the existence of a living being by the mere fact that it does not have the shape or size that we would have wanted?<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Knowledge synthesis<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Careful observation of oral and written data makes it possible to certify the existence of this or that linguistic form.\u00a0It also leads to measuring the frequency according to various parameters.\u00a0These data are precious for linguists, who will derive a hierarchical view of the phenomena.\u00a0They are also invaluable for researchers from other disciplines who develop practical applications, whether in automatic language processing or for teaching French.<\/p>\n<p>Obviously, such a resource is likely to destabilize readers accustomed to traditional grammars, in search of THE correct turn.\u00a0In the EGF, it is about understanding the functioning of the French language by appropriating a scientific vocabulary.\u00a0For this, it is recommended to enter the Encyclopedia by reading the notice on\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.encyclogram.fr\/notx\/019\/019_Notice.php\">variation<\/a>\u00a0to familiarize yourself with this central principle of modern languages.<\/p>\n<p>Then, to see illustrations of this principle, one must take a look at the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.encyclogram.fr\/notx\/009\/009_Notice.php\">place of the adjective<\/a>\u00a0, the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.encyclogram.fr\/notx\/002\/002_Notice.php\">interrogatives<\/a>\u00a0to the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.encyclogram.fr\/notx\/008\/008_Notice.php\">negation<\/a>\u00a0or the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.encyclogram.fr\/notx\/004\/004_Notice.php\">inversion of the subject<\/a>\u00a0.\u00a0Thus, you will see the richness of French through the variety of its uses and the different ways of trying to account for it.\u00a0A terminology index and a search tool in the text of the notices are also available.<\/p>\n<p>In summary, the EGF does not present itself as a classic French grammar and was not conceived on the usual plan of a grammar.\u00a0It is not intended to provide advice on the proper use of the French language or on spelling.\u00a0Rather, it is a synthesis of grammatical knowledge of French, destined to evolve over time.\u00a0The EGF currently includes 27 records for a total of 870 pages.\u00a0Twenty other notices are in preparation.\u00a0An invitation to discover the research carried out in the field of French linguistics.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Author Bio:<\/strong> Christophe Benzitoun is Lecturer in French linguistics at the University of
