Resumo: Brazilian Portuguese data provide evidence to the claim I make in this paper that there are appositive free relatives, contrary to what Emonds (1979) states, for whom free relatives cannot have appositive semantics or syntax. I argue there are reasons to believe the wh-sentence evidenced in the title of this paper is in fact a free relative that carries appositive content, considering issues such as distribution, matching, the nature of quem and semantic content. The quem-type sentence I put into analysis in the present paper differs from an ordinary (headed) appositive relative clause for it seems to be juxtaposed to the nominal it relates to, being equivalent to it, a condition that leads to the impossibility of a relativization process in Kaynes’s (1994) terms for the derivation of this kind of sentence.

Argumento aqui que há razões para crer que a sentença -wh evidenciada no título deste artigo seja na verdade uma relativa livre que carrega conteúdo apositivo, considerando questões como distribuição, matching, a natureza do termo “quem” assim como o conteúdo semântico. A sentença do tipo-quem, que ponho em análise neste artigo, difere de uma relativa apositiva comum (com antecedente expresso) por parecer estar justaposta ao nominal com o qual se conecta, sendo a ele equivalente, condição que conduz à impossibilidade de um processo de relativização nos termos do que propõe Kayne (1994) para a derivação de tais sentenças.SciELO PreprintsSciELO PreprintsSciELO Preprints2021-07-12info:eu-repo/semantics/preprintinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/preprint/view/260710.1590/1678-460x202144681enghttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/article/view/2607/4546Copyright (c) 2021 Paulo Medeiros Junior https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMedeiros Junior , Pauloreponame:SciELO Preprintsinstname:SciELOinstacron:SCI2021-07-07T22:50:39Zoai:ops.preprints.scielo.org:preprint/2607Servidor de preprintshttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scieloONGhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/oaiscielo.submission@scielo.orgopendoar:2021-07-07T22:50:39SciELO Preprints - SciELOfalse
