The purpose of our communication concerns the French substantive livre (book) when it is combined with an adjective within a nominal phrase. Our goal is firstly to propose a conceptual modelling representing the semantic content of the item livre, and secondly to examine the way sense can be constructed in expressions composed of an adjective and that substantive, taking into account both semantic and syntactic structures.
