Abstract: Treatment of Polysemous Modal Auxiliary Verbs in Chinese–French Dictionary Based on Prototype and Schema. Based on the theories of prototype and schema, this paper constructs a suitable processing framework for polysemous modal auxiliary verbs in Chinese–French dictionary according to characteristics of modal auxiliary verbs, and elaborates specific improvement measures from the following three aspects: (1) prototypical annotation of word class, i.e., labelling the most typical cases with 动 [aux. modal] and adding word class properties; (2) selection and arrangement of the senses, equivalents and examples based on prototype and schema, i.e., gradually extending senses, equivalents and examples around modal type; (3) discrimination within the prototype category, i.e., strengthening the synonym discrimination within the same lexical category through boxes and other forms. Finally, the optimised cases presented at the end of the paper. Keywords: prototype, schema, polysemous modal auxiliary verbs, Chinese–French dictionary, learner's dictionary
