Abstract

Unlike the various known discourse analysis frameworks,  we # m E ~ gbe presents some particularities that should be noted. This study therefore aims to present the discourse analysis mechanism in we # m E ~ gbe with its particularities. To achieve this, theoretically, we used the discourse analysis frameworks proposed by Gilles Gauthier. We also conducted participant observations and interviews with experienced speakers of the language. The data collected allowed us, firstly, to define the concepts of analysis, discourse, and politics in the language. Secondly, we identified four frameworks for analyzing political discourse in we # m E~gbe These frameworks are : the textual framework, the environmental framework, the scenic framework, and the metaphasic framework.
