Abstract

When talking about orality in written texts, one actually refers to the meaning effects of orality produced by the use of certainlanguage resources in the text production. These effects result, then, of enunciation strategies used by the enunciator to produce the text, which are determined by the interaction conditions between enunciator and enunciatee at the moment of this production. The aim of this studyis to shed light on all these strategies and thus specify the theoretical references that allow for the understanding of marks of orality in written texts under the perspective of a theory of text.

Key words: enunciation, writing, distance, proximity, orality, text.
