Influences translinguistiques dans l'expression de la référence au temps par les quasi-bilingues russes/français
Résumé
This article is concerned with bi-directional transfer in the productions of Russian/French late bilinguals. Our hypothesis is that the productions of this type of speakers are influenced both by the L1 when they speak in L2 and by the L2 when they speak in L1. These bidirectional influences are observed in their narratives and particularly in the way they express temporal reference introduction and maintaining. Our hypothesis is that bilinguals adopt a neutral narrative strategy, which enables them to organize the narratives in the two languages. This strategy consists in choosing neutral linguistic means in Russian and French to express temporal relations, such as syntactic constructions and lexical means like temporal adverbials, connectors and conjunctions.
