  • Abstract: Dictionary carries with it the grammar of the language. It is either disseminated in articles which are proper to entries, or concentrated on specific points of general rules, depending on the degree of granularity of the description. From examples borrowed from Grand Robert, we will show that the grammar is omnipresent in the dictionary and the micro-grammar is often fixed thanks to syntagmatic solidarities, independently of the degree of their fixedness.
