“…[Ojos] (b) Dijo, seco. [Tango] En el presente apartado queremos, además, focalizar la atención en otro tipo de casos denominados por Hummel (2015Hummel ( , 2017) «adverbios flexionados». Se trata de casos del tipo Vamos directos (apud Hummel 2015) en los que un adjetivo modifica a un verbo cuando sería esperable un adverbio.…”

El presente trabajo estudia el uso del sustantivo con preposición, el adjetivo y el adverbio en relación con la sustancia significativa de manera. Para ello se ha tenido en cuenta, principalmente, el tipo de verbo con el que se combinan, tanto desde el punto de vista de su transitividad o intransitividad, como desde la perspectiva semántica de la clasificación de los eventos. Por un lado, hemos cuantificado su frecuencia de uso dependiendo de la incidencia: hacia el sujeto, el objeto o la acción; por otro, con la intención de estudiar hasta qué punto existe equivalencia significativa entre adjetivos (Entró cauteloso), adverbios (Entró cautelosamente) y sustantivos con preposición (Entró con cautela), hemos aplicado a unidades de las tres categorías las pruebas de los complementos de manera y de los predicativos descriptivos.

The present chapter critically reconsiders the traditional typological distinction between Latin and Romance in terms of a syntheticity-analyticity opposition, according to which core grammatical categories and distinctions are marked morphologically in Latin but syntactically in Romance. After considering a wide selection of the Romance evidence for innovative analytic structures manifested in the emergence of a series of functional categories lexicalizing various functional heads within the nominal, verbal and clausal domains, a number of empirical and theoretical problems and limitations with this superficial dichotomy are reviewed. These highlight how the observed differences between Latin and Romance cannot be simplistically reduced to a synthetic-analytic opposition. Rather, it is argued that the observed rise of Romance analyticity should be considered an epiphenomenal development, ultimately the manifestation of a deeper change, but not, significantly, its cause, related to a change in the head directionality parameter from head-finality to head-initiality.

“…Research on the study of variation phenomena in adverbs has especially focused on non-agreement adjectives, also called adverbial adjectives (Bartra and Suñer 1997;Hummel 2015Hummel , 2017Di Tullio and Suñer 2011;Suñer and Di Tullio 2014;Suñer 2017;among others). Variations in adverbs have also focused on adverbial agreement (Felíu 2018;Pato and Casanova 2017;Felíu and Pato 2019;Pato 2020).…”

Evidential Adverbs and Polarity: A Study from Spanish

This paper addresses the analysis of variations in structures that are projected in discourse. Starting with the relationship between evidential adverbs and the affirmative Spanish adverb sí, I review the occurrence of the conjunction que “that” with evidential adverbs, such as naturalmente “naturally”, ciertamente “certainly”, obviamente “obviously”, and evidentemente “evidently” as a Hispanic phenomenon, as well as its value and development in different varieties of Spanish. Although it appears that Latin American Spanish varieties lack an overt que in certain situations, such as sí que contexts or recomplementation, studies of the construction with evidential adverbs in language varieties different from European Spanish remain limited. I use examples extracted from CREA and CORPES XXI. My main objectives are to review the presence of the construction with evidential adverb + que (“that”) in Spanish by paying particular attention to its distribution in Latin American countries and to study the basic uses of the construction in countries in which it is documented.
