| Summary: | This paper presents a contrastive analysis French/Berber (Kabylian) of the future perfect and the particle [ad + ili (aorist)]. We will focus on a particular point. The relation of modality to time in Aristotle’s view is that all genuine possibilities are actualized in time. Thus, any possibility has been, is or will be actualized. L. Gosselin proposes a definition on what the relation of modality to aspectuality should constitute. In view of this definition, we will argue that time or modality value does not only result from languages which encode distinction by means of grammatical elements (inflectional morphemes). In traditional linguistic analysis, the verbal system of Berber (Kabyle) encodes only aspectual oppositions. However, one expresses time as one translates a text in French. I submit that linguistic elements of sentences are polysemous and can express time and modality which is the result of a complex combinatory of units. |
