Summary/Abstract: The theory of enunciative operations of Antoine Culioli rejects the idea that language is an instrument but rather, «the language apprehended through natural languages», which is the field of linguistics. This implies that the role of the linguist is to describe the natural languages. The sentence is to the order of discourse which it is the main unit, the linguist admits that there is no sentence only that called predicative. In the sentence, the predicate may be either a noun or a verb. In nominal predication, the noun refers to the notion of being or object. Thus, the noun receives a determination that allows it to function in a statement. This article which relates to the noun dioula attempts to describe an African language, specifically an Ivorian language by reporting the factor of being and object, functional element in a sentence, according to the TOE (Theory Enunciative Operations) of Antoine Culioli.
