Resumo: | In this paper, we discuss some issues related to the modelling of language variation and change within the framework of the Cognitive Construction Grammar. We particularly put into question the principle of no synonymy as outlined by Goldberg (1995, 2006), especially regarding the indistinction between the semantic and pragmatic components in the definition of construction. To this end, we analyze the intraclausal causal constructions por causa de and por conta de in order to show that they can alternate in some contexts. Although these two constructions play different argumentative functions, they share a set of formal and semantic properties that create a space for variation, especially if we restrict semantic equivalence to the referential meaning. The results of the analysis provide evidence to argue in favor of a stricter delimitation of the principle of no synonymy.---Original in French. |

Nous remettons notamment en cause le principe de non synonymie tel que proposé par Goldberg (1995, 2006), principalement en ce qui concerne l’indistinction entre les composantes sémantique et pragmatique dans la définition de construction. Pour cela, nous analysons les constructions causales por causa de et por conta de afin de montrer que dans certains contextes elles peuvent alterner. Bien que les deux constructions jouent des rôles argumentatifs différents, elles partagent un ensemble de propriétés formelles et sémantiques qui engendrent un espace de variation, surtout si on restreint l’ équivalence sémantique au niveau référentiel. Les résultats de l’analyse permettent d’apporter des arguments favorables à une définition plus stricte du principe de non synonymie.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------HA LUGAR PARA VARIAÇÃO NA GRAMATICA DE CONSTRUÇÕES COGNITIVA? O CASO DA CONSTRUÇÃO [por SN de X]Neste artigo, discutimos alguns problemas relativos à modelização da variação e da mudança linguística no quadro teórico da Gramática de Construções Cognitiva. Colocamos em causa, em especial, o princípio da não sinonímia tal como formulado por Goldberg (1995, 2006), principalmente no que se refere à indistinção entre os componentes semântico e pragmático na definição de construção. Para tanto, analisamos as construções causais intraoracionais por causa de e por conta de, com o objetivo de mostrar que elas podem alternar em alguns dos seus contextos. Embora as duas construções desempenhem funções argumentativas distintas, elas partilham um conjunto de propriedades formais e semânticas que criam um espaço de variação, principalmente se restringimos equivalência semântica ao nível referencial. Os resultados obtidos na análise fornecem evidências para argumentar a favor de uma delimitação mais estrita do princípio de não sinonímia.---Original em francês.Universidade Federal Fluminense2020-09-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/article/view/4232610.22409/gragoata.v25i52.42326Gragoatá; Vol. 25 No. 52 (2020): Grammar of constructions and interfaces; 879-909Gragoatá; v. 25 n. 52 (2020): Gramática de Construções e interfaces; 879-9092358-41141413-907310.22409/gragoata.v25i52reponame:Gragoatáinstname:Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF)instacron:UFFporhttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/article/view/42326/26461Copyright (c) 2020 Gragoatáinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPaiva, Maria da ConceiçãoOliveira, Bruno Araújo de2020-09-21T09:06:32Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/42326Revistahttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoataPUBhttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/oai||revistagragoata@gmail.com2358-41141413-9073opendoar:2020-09-21T09:06:32Gragoatá - Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF)false |
