Abstract:

The article explores some reflexive factitive constructions of the se faire + inf. type with causative-passive and passive values, which are one of the ways to express the passive voice in the French language. The analysis attempts to present the examined factitive constructions focusing on their formal grammatical organization and functional-semantic relations established between the subject and object actants participating in their structures. The article also discusses the reasons that determine the productivity of the reflexive factitive constructions with causative-passive and passive value.

Keywords:

reflexive factitive constructions, causative-passive value, passive value, French language.
