Le sens de la famille : analyse du vocabulaire de la parent{é} par les plongements de mots
In this study, we propose a corpus analysis of an area of the French lexicon that is both dense and highly structured: the vocabulary of family relationships. Starting with a lexicon of 25 nouns designating the main relationships (son, cousin, mother, grandfather, sister-in-law etc.), we examine how these terms are positioned in relation to each other through distributional analyses based on the use of these terms in corpora. We show that distributional information can capture certain features that organize this vocabulary (descent, alliance, siblings, genre), in ways that vary according to the different corpora compared.
