- English abstract
- While much has been written on the simple / periphrastic future dyad in French, the periphrastic form (e.g. il va avoir plu) corresponding to the anterior future has so far been neglected. This article proposes a theoretical description of the form, contrasted with the anterior future, based on a revised version of Azzopardi and Bres’ (2017) neo-Reichenbachian system. It concludes that the scarcity of the periphrastic form results from its ability to compete with the anterior future in only one of three possible configurations: S – E – R. The article then tests that claim against written and oral corpora.
