An analysis of the calque phenomena based on comparable corpora [PDF]

Proceedings of the 2nd Workshop on Building and Using Comparable Corpora from Parallel to Non-parallel Corpora - BUCC '09, 2009
In this short paper we show how Comparable corpora can be constructed in order to analyze the notion of 'calque'.

Sous le calque, la carte.

2019
La vue zénithale qu’offrent les cartes a pu conduire à l’oubli de leurs sources : des expériences horizontales de l’espace via la maîtrise pratique et théorique de la distance.
