Françoise Ozanne-Rivierre (1941–2007) was a French linguist based at LACITOCNRS, internationally known for her work on the languages of New Caledonia.[1]

She completed her doctorate in linguistics in 1973, with a dissertation titled Le iaai, langue mélanésienne d'Ouvéa (Nouvelle-Calédonie), at Université Paris III, where she was a student of Haudricourt and Hagège.[1] She became a member of the CNRS in 1972 and joined LACITO in 1976, where she remained until her retirement in 2006.[2]

She published extensively on several New Caledonian languages, especially Iaai; the various languages of Hienghène (Fwâi, Pije, Jawe, Nemi); Fagauvea; and Nyelâyu. She was known for her work on Austronesian comparative linguistics, in particular for the application of the comparative method to the study of Oceanic languages.[2][1]

Her husband, Jean-Claude Rivierre (fr) (1938-2018), was also a linguist working on the languages of New Caledonia.[2]
