ARAUJO, Sílvia Lima Gonçalves. Se faire + vinf: un outil au service de la construction d’une diathèse ‘maléfactive’ de l’objet (in)direct. Diacrítica [online]. 2013, vol.27, n.1, pp.5-37. ISSN 0807-8967.

This paper is intended to establish a space for reflection on the usefulness of a monolingual corpus in fields concerning the study of language, using for that purpose a concrete example, i.e. that of se faire+Vinf constructions. Based on a literary and journalistic corpus, which we queried to determine the types of verbs more often selected by se faire, we essentially aim to describe the linguistic mechanics behind this diathetic marker in contexts where the subject lacks telicity over the events that overcome him. As we will attempt to demonstrate, se faire willingly associates with negative verbs belonging to different language registers (particularly non-standard) in order to build a detrimental diathesis derived from the direct or indirect object.

Palabras clave : (malefactive) diathesis; se faire; slang; passive; direct or indirect) object.
