Abstract:The artistic value of the literary masterpieces constantly impose to the writers a demarche which consists in making appeal to the spoken language in order to give their creations a certain freshness and a local footprint. The novels or the short stories (as our study precisely refers to prose) often anchor the facts in a reality which contains elements of the spoken language, thus giving a touch of authenticity to their content. Our study refers to the marks of the spoken language, in this exact significance, having the purpose to detect certain signs of the spoken language which were used to build up the narrative schema of the short story “Histoire vraie” written by Guy de Maupassant. Furthermore, we will also approach the delicate matter of translating the signs of the spoken language from one language to another, using the adequate and specific instruments. Our demarche is based on the transience of the spoken language, as writing implies its elaboration during a certain period, which allows us to asseverate the truthfulness and the spontaneity of the message expressed by a person (by the writer, in this particular case).
To conclude, the study aims to focus our attention upon the signs of the spoken language and their status, role and function dissimulated in the phrases written by Guy de Maupassant in the short story entitled “Histoire vraie”.
