A speaker‑centered theory, such as the Theory of the Predicative and Enunciative Operations of Culioli, cannot neglect the analysis of specific linguistic markers. In this regard, polysemous markers provide a rich field of study. This is why we have chosen to study the verb perdre in French, through data taken from the Frantext corpus. In order to understand the factors explaining how this verb interacts with its context and the enunciative situation, we need to distinguish between several levels of variation, from which it will be possible to define the schematic form of perdre. The modelling of these parameters will serve to outline the theoretical requirements of a combinatorial analysis.
