L'interjection accompagnée d'un geste. Plaidoyer pour un description lexicographique

Pierre Rézeau: Interjections accompanied by a gesture: in favour of a lexicographical description Treated as the poor parent of linguistic studies, the interjection has hardly benefited from a better status with lexicographers. We shall try to compensate for this by looking a spécifie area of language: that of the interjection accompanied by a gesture. Example of this: such as «plouf plouf» are particularly fréquent in nursery rhymes but can of course be found elsewhere, as the examples «chut» and «dehors» illustrate.Rézeau Pierre.
