BOUARIOUA, Widad2025-03-112025-03-112024-092706-6312http://ddeposit.univ-alger2.dz/handle/20.500.12387/8410In this contribution, which is part of the field of sociolinguistics, we have focused on studying the representations that young people in Algeria have of the French language (its status and future). Our objective is to identify the different images attributed to French in an Algerian linguistic landscape that is multilingual. This empirical study was conducted in Algiers (the capital of Algeria) among young people from one of the oldest districts of the city, namely the Bab El Oued district. This field study aims, on the one hand, to identify the representations linked to the use of the French language in an Algerian sociolinguistic context today. On the other hand, this research will also reveal the place that the French language now occupies among our respondents and its relationship with other languages, particularly Algerian Arabic and English.en: Representation, sociolinguistic, French language, algerian contextArticle
