| Crynodeb: | In this work, I investigate the modalizing construction [V1AUX + Prep + V2INF], which
licenses types such as tenho de reconfigurar, hei de ver, está para nascer, ficou de mandar,
among others. My objective is to characterize this construction formally and functionally,
considering morphosyntactic, cognitive, and semantic-pragmatic aspects implicated in its
instances of use. To achieve this, I anchor myself in the assumptions of Usage-based
Functional Linguistics, according to Furtado da Cunha, Bispo, and Silva (2013), Bispo e
Lopes (2022), which incorporates contributions from Construction Grammar in the line of
Goldberg (1995), Croft (2001), Traugott and Trousdale (2013), and others. Methodologically,
the research presents a qualitative-quantitative bias and has a descriptive-explanatory nature.
The database is composed of occurrences taken from the Corpus do Português online,
specifically from the Web/Dialects section. The results show that, in the investigated
constructional patterns, ficar, estar, ter, and haver lost their characteristics as full verbs,
becoming auxiliary verbs. Regarding token frequency, the most recurrent pattern was ter de +
infinitive, followed by haver de, estar para, and ficar de + infinitive. Regarding functional
aspects, I found that the senses conveyed by the construction are related to notions of
obligation, necessity, commitment, and volition, mostly linked to deontic modality. However,
some uses of haver de, estar para, and ficar de + infinitive align with epistemic modality.
Furthermore, I found that the sharing of functional spaces between the ter de + infinitive and
haver de + infinitive patterns is limited to some usage contexts, related to the expression of
necessity/obligation. Moreover, all investigated sub-schemas presented semantic variability
regarding the filling of the V2 slot. Regarding the underlying cognitive aspects of the
instances of use of the sub-schemas under focus, the results point to the presence of different
configurations via conceptual perspectivization in the diverse uses of each pattern and to
recurrent metonymic and metaphoric projections in the analyzed constructs. Regarding the
sociointeractional processes, there is a continuum between the subjective and intersubjective
biases in each investigated constructional pattern, in which the same constructional type can
present multifunctionality in different usage contexts. Moreover, some samples of ter de,
haver de, estar para, and ficar de + infinitive align with specific speech acts and their
respective perlocutionary effects, while others instantiate indirect speech acts. The
constructional network of which the sub-schemas are part is headed by the broader scheme
that titles the work - [V1AUX + Prep + V2INF] -, and the licensed constructional patterns are
characterized as partially schematic, with high productivity and intermediate compositionality. |
