Abstract

We present an analysis of the linguistic markers of the enunciative modalities in direct reported speech, in a multilingual framework concerning Arabic and French. Furthermore, we present a platform for automatic annotation of semantic relations, based on the Contextual Exploration method. This platform allows the automatic annotation and categorisation of quotational segments in both languages, exploiting a semantic map based on the notion of speaker commitment in enunciation.
