Written in French.
This paper is an introduction to an original method of semantic analysis still relatively little-known in France. The research carried out by Anna Wierzbicka takes full account of cultural differences and allows for different aspects of human communication to be envisaged by means of a single descriptive tool – the Natural Semantic Metalanguage. The presentation is divided into two sections: the first looks at the postulates that underpin Wierzbicka’s methodology, the second provides some concrete examples.
