adjective

Autonome, impersonnel

(Celtic linguistics, of a verb form) Used with no subject, indicating an unknown or unspecified agent; used in similar situations as the passive in English (the difference being that the theme in the English passive construction is the subject, while in the Celtic autonomous construction the theme is the object and there is no subject).

Examples :

"The house was painted, with no mention of who did the painting. This autonomous construction in the sentence highlights the act of painting, but not the specific person or people responsible. "

La maison a été peinte, sans mention de qui a fait la peinture. Cette construction impersonnelle dans la phrase met en évidence l'acte de peindre, mais pas la personne ou les personnes responsables.
