It seems rather natural to admit that language use is governed by rules that relate signs, forms and meanings to possible intentions or possible interpretations, in function of utterance situations. Not less natural should seem the idea that the meaning of a natural language expression conveys enough material to the input of these rules, so that, given the situation of utterance, they determine the appropriate interpretation. If this is correct, the semantic description of a natural language expression should output not only the 'informative content' of that expression, but also all sorts of indications concerning the way this. | ARGUMENTATION IN REPRESENTATION SEMANTICS Pierre-Yves RACCAH ERA 430 - . Conseil d Etat Palais Royal 75100 Paris RP ABSTRACT It seems rather natural to admit that language use is governed by rules that relate signs forms and meanings to possible intentions or possible interpretations in function of utterance situations. Not less natural should seem the idea that the meaning of a natural language expression conveys enough material to the input of these rules so that given the situation of utterance they determine the appropriate interpretation. If this is correct the semantic description of a natural language expression should output not only the informative content of that expression but also all sorts of indications concerning the way this expression may be used or interpreted. In particular the argumentative power of utterances is due to argumentative indications conveyed by the sentences uttered indications that are not part of their informative content . This paper emphasizes the role of argumentation in language and shows how it could be accounted for in a formal Representation Semantics framework. An example of an analysis is provided in order to show the system at work . I. ARGUMENTATION AND THE SEMANTIC PROGRAM. A. What is linguistic in argumentation. The theory of argumentation developped by Jean-Claude Anscombre and Oswald Ducrot is an attempt to describe some aspects of language that have not been carefully studied yet in spite of their importance for linguistic theory discourse representation as well as simulation of understanding. In their framework utterances are seen to be produced in order to argue for some particular conclusions with a certain force depending on the situation of utterance. Thus when I utter 1 This is beautiful but expensive in front of a shop window and pointing to some item I present my utterance as a reason for not buying this item while if I say 2 This is expensive but beautiful This work has been supported in part by a .
