Resumen
YAO, Koffi. Metaphors and calques in French phraseological creation in Ivory Coast. Íkala [online]. 2018, vol.23, n.3, pp.469-483. ISSN 0123-3432. https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.ikala.v23n03a03.
This study aims to shed light on the principle governing the formation of certain phraseological units specific to the French spoken in Côte d'Ivoire. Relying upon metaphors and lexical/semantic calques modeled on the local linguistic substrate, we can understand the idiomatic principles characterizing the formation of complex lexis (frozen expressions) and textual lexis (adages or proverbs) by relying on selected elements through some current speak acts between Ivorians. Otherwise, the study examines native language influences, taking into account the contextual and sociolinguistic phenomena, with the aim of pointing the theoretical properties determining the construction of those specific phraseological units of the French spoken in Ivory Coast.
