Resumo: | In this paper, I defend the idea that the phenomenon of constituent ordering serves the communicative purpose of conveying information. Based on the cognitive-iconic principle presented by Givón (1990), Croft (1990), and Delbecque (2006), I show that the ordering of verb-subject and object-verb-subject in the clause is associated, besides its syntactic-semantic properties, to two functions in the organization of the texts: the first function is conditioned to participate in strategies that establish the centrality of a specific theme in the text and, hence ensure textual continuity. The second function tends to be a discontinuity strategy to insert other thematic topics in the texts or discursively mark another attention flows of the message. Moreover, I briefly present suggestions for exercises that provide an approach to the syntax of the subject in the classroom. |

Baseado no princípio cognitivo-icônico proposto por Givón (1990), Croft (1990) e Delbecque (2006), mostro que ordenação verbo-sujeito e objeto-verbo-sujeito na oração está associada, além das suas propriedades sintático-semânticas, a duas funções na organização dos textos: a primeira está condicionada a participar de estratégias que instauram a centralidade de um determinado tema no texto e, portanto, asseguram continuidade textual. Já a segunda, tende a ser estratégia de descontinuidade para inserir outros tópicos temáticos nos textos ou marcar discursivamente outros fluxos de atenção da mensagem. Além disso, apresento sumariamente sugestões de exercícios que proporcionem uma abordagem da sintaxe do sujeito em sala de aula.Universidade Federal Fluminense2022-05-03info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/article/view/5194010.22409/gragoata.v27i58.51940Gragoatá; Vol. 27 No. 58 (2022): Língua, Gramática e Discurso na interface pragmática-sintaxe; 118-145Gragoatá; v. 27 n. 58 (2022): Língua, Gramática e Discurso na interface pragmática-sintaxe; 118-1452358-41141413-907310.22409/gragoata.v27i58reponame:Gragoatáinstname:Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF)instacron:UFFporhttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/article/view/51940/31994Copyright (c) 2022 Gragoatáinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAtaíde, Cleber2022-05-03T19:29:53Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/51940Revistahttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoataPUBhttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/oai||revistagragoata@gmail.com2358-41141413-9073opendoar:2022-05-03T19:29:53Gragoatá - Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF)false |
