La déverbalisation constitue le noyau de la Théorie du Sens et reflète les rapports entre la langue et la pensée / l’esprit, or elle n'a jamais été justifiée ni falsifié de manière adéquate depuis sa proposition par Danica Seleskovitch, représentante de l'École de Paris. Le présent article ne vise pas à fournir des preuves supplémentaires de confirmation ou d’infirmation, ce qui est la pratique courante au sein de la communauté des études d'interprétation; en revanche, il tente de jeter quelque lumière sur cette hypothèse tout en faisant une analyse compréhensive à partir des trois hypothèses existantes au sujet des rapports entre la langue et la pensée.

Won, Jong-Hwa. (2007). Code-switching and cognitive models of the process of simultaneous interpreting. Conference Interpretation and Translation, 9(2), 89-112. Bilingual code-switching has long been recognized as an important linguistic phenomenon worthy of serious investigation. Code-switching is a special skill possessed by bilinguals which allows them to switch from one language to another in the course of a communicative exchange without slowing down speech delivery. The process involves the integration of the morphological, phonological, and syntactic structures of the two codes or languages in real time. Code-switching is a particularly vital aspect of the behavior of the simultaneous interpreters. Indeed, one of the major defining characteristics of simultaneous interpreting is that it inevitably involves code-switching in which switches occur moment by moment not only by the speakers but by the interpreters themselves. Code-switching can also be said to occur when interpreters listen in one language and delivers in another. Few interpreting models formulated so far, however, have incorporated the code-switching process, with the result that simultaneous interpreting is presented as a strict, linear, one-way process. This paper asks the question “To what extent should the theory of code-switching be drawn upon in describing and explaining the process of simultaneous interpreting?” and a tentative answer is offered by integrating the switching process into Setton’s (1999) simultaneous interpreting model.
