Abstract

The French language boasts one of the richest lexicons in the world, with its vocabulary continuo usly evolving due to loanwords from various languages and deep etymological ties with neighboring tongues. This article analyzes the primary sources of  lexical enrichment in French, focusing on lexical borrowings (“emprunts lexicaux”) and etimological doublets (“doublets étymologiques”). The article emphasizes that the lexical richness of French is a result of historical, cultural, and linguistic exchanges..  

Keywords

French language, lexical evolution, loanwords, etymological doublets, language contact, linguistic richness.
