L’INTÉGRATION DES SIGLES DANS LES DISCOURS SPÉCIALISÉS : LE CAS DE LA PRESSE ÉCRITE
THE INTEGRATION OF ACRONYMS IN SPECIALIZED DISCOURSES: THE CASE OF THE WRITTEN PRESS

Summary/Abstract: The creation of acronyms is a very active process in specialized languages, but their integration into discourse is of paramount importance for the effective functioning of communication. This very complex fact of language, which results from the abbreviation of a polylexical phrase in its initial letters, is one of the processes for enriching the lexicon of a language. We have chosen to capture acronyms during their integration phase into the discourse to see how they transform from simple abbreviations into ordinary words used by speakers without realizing their origin. We have taken four integration parameters, which are the spelling, morphology, syntax and meaning of acronyms.
