The question of trying to draw clear lines between irony and humour has always proved to be a very difficult task; all the theorists who have worked on the subject have revealed the difficulty and complexity of such an attempt (cf. P. Charaudeau, "Des catégories pour l humour? Questions de communication n°10). The aim of the present article is to show that irony develops effectively by means of argumentation and that the effectiveness of this depends particularly on the strategies employed, which are most often based on the effects of capture.

With the aim of conducting a research situated in the Algerian school context, we have opted for a topic that deals with reading in an FLE context. Our article focuses on the learning of reading in a third grade primary school class in order to answer our questions about the learning methods adopted by the teacher, and to study closely the difficulties faced by the pupils in the selected sample. We will take as epistemological support the different theories in the didactics of French as a foreign language relating to reading and its learning. As far as our methodological approach is concerned, we will carry out a survey by questionnaire and by observation of French lessons in order to find some answers. Reading and interpreting the results of this survey shows that teachers do not attach too much importance to reading in class sessions, although it is a skill to be acquired that is essential to any teaching.

The author of « Les Matitis » definies them as « villages in the city, big villages in the city of Libeville (…) a universe of plywood in boards and asbestos roofing sheets of Libreville” ( F. Ndong Mbeng, 2016: 15) . The matitis in reality, are neither suburbs nor the neighbourhoods, nor the city itsef , they are ghettos, melting pots in the heart of Libreville. Unsalubrity, unemployment, precariousness, prostitution, drug , etc, are the lots of the inhabitants of the matitis. The text is labyrinthine and linguistically heterogeneous in the image of mastitis. The language of the street comes in contact with of standard French, as well as with some languages. The result of this mixture is the birth of a sociolect made up of diverse lexical particularities syntactic, simplifications, neologisms, deviations loan translations; etc.This paper seeks to show that, while writing in non-standard French the creolization of the “Matitis” French reveals the linguistic creativity genius of these people living on margin of society and of society. These, to translate their daily realities create and use de language where the linguistic signs are not always arbitrary. This language, instead of being stigmatized would deserve a big interest by “the normalists” of the French language.
