Incidences sémantiques de la suffixation sur la réduplication verbale en wolof

In Wolof, conjugation is realized using an invariable lexical basis to which are attached affixes carrying marks of IPAM (e.g. in French : Indice ; Personne ; Aspect-Temps ; Mode) (Perrin 2005 : 22) and highlighting semantic and grammatical roles.

Summary:In Wolof, conjugation is realized using an invariable lexical basis to which are attached affixes carrying marks of IPAM (e.g. in French : Indice ; Personne ; Aspect-Temps ; Mode) (Perrin 2005 : 22) and highlighting semantic and grammatical roles. Reduplication is productive at several lexical categories (nouns, verbs, adverbs). As verbal derivation is mostly built by both reduplication and suffixation, I propose here to analyze and describe the relationship in the construction of meaning between these two processes.
