Résumé 0

This study aims to establish a relationship between the morphosyntax, the lexicon and conceptual patterns involved in the phenomenon of (non-)culmination. It is proposed that in the case of non-culminating accomplishments, the interaction between the syntax and the lexicon triggers a specific conceptual configuration which represents a goal-directed trajectory initiated by an intentional subject targeting the change-of-state of an object. The same configuration can also be viewed in a reverse order, going from the observation of a change of state to attributing a cause to this change. We propose that non-culminating accomplishments are palimpsestic structures that involve two points of view simultaneously: the prospective goal-directed perspective of the intentional subject and the retrospective perspective of the speaker.
