RÉSUMÉ. L'anglicisme est traité par des règles et politiques pour maintenir la pureté de la langue française. Cette étude vise à déterminer les motifs des médias de gauche français et québécois utilisant l'anglicisme dans leurs titres. Cette étude qualitative utilise les théories morphologiques de Tamine (1990) et Meney (2017), syntaxique de Le Querler (1994) et le concept de mots d'emprunt de Hudson (1996). Bien qu’ils partagent la même idéologie, les deux médias ont des différents motifs. Le Monde outrepasse les règles comme la stratégie marketing ; tandis que La Presse tend à les suivre pour maintenir le français comme l'identité du Québec. Ainsi, cette étude appuie les recherches précédentes de Febrianne Miranda (2018) et Kautsar Miranda (2021): le Québec maintient mieux la souveraineté de la langue comparé au gouvernement français qui est flexible utilisant l'anglicisme en fonction de l'évolution de la politique étrangère et l'idéologie de son gouvernement. Mots-clés : anglicisme, morphologie, le monde, la presse, titre ABSTRACT. Anglicism is handled through rules and policies in order to maintain the purity of the French language. This study aims to determine motives of French and Quebec leftist media for using anglicism through their headlines. This qualitative study uses Tamine (1990) and Meney (2017) morphological theory, Le Querler’s syntactic theory (1994) and Hudson's concept of loanwords (1996). Despite the same ideology, the two media have different motives in using anglicism. Le Monde overrides the rules as a marketing strategy; while La Presse tends to follow them to maintain the French language as the identity of Quebec. Thus, this study supports previous research by Febrianne Miranda (2018) and Kautsar Miranda (2021) that Quebec is better in maintaining the French language sovereignty than the French government who is flexible in dealing with anglicism depending on the development of foreign policy and the ideology of its government.Keywords: anglicism, headlines, le monde, la presse, morphology

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
