“…Cependant, ces exemples restent assimilables aux structures de possession inaliénable, car dessus peut être considéré comme une « préposition orpheline » régissant le pronom datif qui lui est antéposé (cf. Porquier 2001). Sur le plan quantitatif, les exemples de cette structure ne sont pas rares, même s'ils ne proviennent que de trois auteurs différents.…”

Les verbes météorologiques français sont généralement considérés comme impersonnels avalents. Cependant, de nombreuses études ont pointé la présence systématique dans ces structures d'un constituant locatif, lui attribuant potentiellement un statut d'argument externe. Etant donné que ce même rôle peut également être assumé par un constituant datif, la présente étude propose d'examiner, à partir d'une recherche de corpus menée dans Frantext, si ces deux constituants se trouvent en distribution complémentaire. Il s'avère que les pronoms datifs peuvent effectivement apparaître avec des verbes météorologiques, y compris en coprésence d'un constituant locatif. L'analyse qualitative syntaxico-sémantique d'une trentaine d'occurrences révèle que les pronoms datifs apparaissent surtout dans les emplois métaphoriques, même si les emplois atmosphériques ne sont pas exclus. Sur le plan structural, le datif apparaît soit en l'absence d'un constituant locatif, soit en sa présence. Dans le premier cas, le verbe météorologique est utilisé de façon métaphorique et le datif indique le bénéficiaire de l'événement dénoté. Lorsque le datif apparaît avec un constituant locatif, celuici désigne une partie du corps (en tant que lieu d'impact) dont le datif exprime la possession inaliénable. Le datif argumental n'est donc pas compatible avec un constituant locatif, mais le constituant locatif lui-même pourrait, dans le cas des verbes météorologiques, être analysé comme dénotant un bénéficiaire.Abstract. Rulings are raining down on us from everywhere: the use of dative with weather verbs. French weather verbs have been mostly considered as impersonal without arguments. However, some studies have pointed out the systematic presence of a locative constituent with these verbs, potentially analyzed as their external argument. Given that a dative constituent can share the same status, this corpus-based study examines whether these two constituents are indeed in complementary distribution. It shows that dative pronouns do occur with weather verbs, including cases when the locative constituent is present. Qualitative semantico-syntactic analysis of about thirty occurrences reveals that dative pronouns appear especially in metaphorical uses of weather verbs, although they are not excluded in the atmospheric uses either. Structurally, datives can appear either with or without a locative constituent. In the latter case, weather verbs are used metaphorically and the dative denotes a beneficiary of the designated event, while in the former, the locative denotes a body part affected by the event (be it metaphoric or atmospheric) and the dative functions as an external possessor. Argumental beneficiary datives are thus not compatible with locative constituents, but locative constituents in themselves can be analyzed as denoting beneficiaries.

“…Moreover, it was demonstrated that Italian tends to use phrasal constructions more widely than the other Romance languages, in particular French (Iacobini & Masini, 2006;Simone, 2008). In French, the likelihood of occurrence of these constructions is observed to be much more limited, as is the number of canonical forms recorded in dictionaries (Porquier, 2001(Porquier, , 2003Schwarze, 1985). For example, the use of verb-framed constructions in which the information on motion is entirely conflated in the verbal root is more common.…”

The presence of colloquialisms, set phrases and idioms has often been investigated in AVT studies as a gauge for determining the levels of naturalness and verisimilitude of original film and dubbed dialogues compared to naturally-occurring speech. Up until recently, however, the results of these studies have almost exclusively been based on the analysis of transcribed film data. It will be the aim of this study to explore the frequency of use of a specific linguistic trait of colloquial Italian, i.e. phrasal verbs, in a corpus of original Italian films and original French films and their dubbed Italian versions by considering the totality of the meaning-making resources deployed in the filmic text. To this extent, the corpora used will be a subset of the multimedia annotated database Forlixt 1, developed at SITLEC (University of Bologna at Forlì). Here, the combination of features, such as access to integral filmic data, availability of transcriptions, and annotation of relevant linguistic, cultural, pragmatic and semiotic traits will be explored to study phrasal verbs. Specific constraints of dubbing will furthermore be taken into account, i.e. representation of authentic conversation, influence of the source language, and preservation of the wholeness of the original audiovisual text.

The role of dialects in the emergence of Italian phrasal verbs

Romance Languages are a less homogenous group than depicted by current typological descriptions. Although Verb-Framing structures are predominantly used, Satellite-Framing constructions are present in all major Romance varieties and prevalent in some minor varieties. The study of the dialects of Italy shows that the presence of Phrasal Verbs (PhV) in the Italian language is due to an internal development (which finds antecedents in vulgar and late Latin) that gave rise to a construction that has been present in Tuscan dialects since their origins. The particular history of the relationship between dialects and the national language helps to explain the more frequent occurrence of PhVs in current standard Italian as compared to the other major Romance languages. The confutation of the hypothesis whereby the origin of Italian PhVs depends on a calque from the German language, although based on diachronic and diatopic data on the presence of PhVs in the dialects of Italy, has important methodological consequences. It shows that a typological model of the encoding of motion events must encompass the processes of internal variations (that may also depend on diamesic and diastratic factors) and not explain the causes of change only through external influence.
