Description
Summary:This paper aims to highlight the particular structuring operation that the speaker performs in the syntax of possession in languages. It shows that elements belonging to the semantic sphere specific to the speaker, including body parts involved in inalienable possession, are structured metalinguistically and their syntactic organizations encode in the linear structure, albeit in a special way, but all the same logical, traces of this inalienability. Finally, it shows that elements that are not part of the personal sphere of the speaker and are involved in alienable possession are stuctured paradigmatically with operators materializing a distanciation between the speaker and the alienable extralinguistic entities.
