This notion makes it possible to take into account segmental, prosodic, corporal, contextual, and situational elements when defining an utterance, or one of its units, as formulaic, even when it consists of only a single lexical item. It also permits a considerable extension of the scope of formulaic communicative manifestations, ranging from monolexical routine formulae and sentence-based proverbs to formulaic texts and even communicative events. As a hyperonym, polyfactoriality is likewise characterized by relative stability through its smallest common formulaic denominator, by semantic non-compositionality (arising from its idiomatic footprint), and by its multimodal character. Based on these reflections, a revised definition of the notion of a formulaic sequence will be put forward.</p> |
