Resumo: This article aims to present the configuration of the adjective-adverb construction of qualitative meaning in contemporary Brazilian Portuguese. The theoretical perspective adopted was the Usage-Based Linguistics, according to which constructions emerge from use and are organized in a structured way in a constructional network that includes different levels of abstraction (TRAUGOTT; TROUSDALE, 2013; GOLDBERG, 2019). The data collected from Corpus do Português and C-Oral-Brasil I underwent a quali-quantitative analysis, centered on the observation of formal, semantic, discursive-pragmatic and contextual properties of the construction [V AA]Qualit. The results of this analysis indicated that this construction presents the following tendencies: formal pattern [V AA] – the adjective occurs postposed and adjacent to an intransitive verb or to a verb in intransitive use; meaning resulting from the combination of a material-type verb to adjectives of different semantic types; pragmatic restriction of exclusive informational focus; and occurrence in more informal and prototypically oral texts.

Adotando a perspectiva teórica da Linguística Funcional Centrada no Uso (LFCU), propomos que o verbo e o adjetivo adverbial sejam conceptualizados e instanciados em conjunto, compondo um único pareamento forma-sentido (TRAUGOTT; TROUSDALE, 2013; GOLDBERG, 2019). Interessa-nos, portanto, depreender a configuração da construção [V AA]Qualit, com base na investigação de suas propriedades formais, semânticas, discursivo-pragmáticas e contextuais, em análise quali-quantitativa. Os dados foram coletados nos corpora Corpus do Português e C-Oral-Brasil e correspondem ao português brasileiro contemporâneo. Nossa análise demonstra que tal construção tende a ser formada por um verbo intransitivo ou em uso intransitivo, principalmente de sentido material, seguido imediatamente de um adjetivo mais abstrato, de diferentes tipos semânticos. Além disso, os resultados indicam que a construção é mais vinculada à estrutura informacional de foco exclusivo e é mais frequente em textos mais informais e prototipicamente orais.UFRN2022-07-07info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufrn.br/odisseia/article/view/2893810.21680/1983-2435.2022v7n2ID28938Odisseia; Vol. 7 No. 2 (2022): Revista Odisseia; 1-21Revue Odisseia; Vol. 7 No. 2 (2022): Revista Odisseia; 1-21Revista Odisseia; v. 7 n. 2 (2022): Revista Odisseia; 1-211983-243510.21680/1983-2435.2022v7n2reponame:Revista odisséiainstname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN)instacron:UFRNporhttps://periodicos.ufrn.br/odisseia/article/view/28938/15881Copyright (c) 2022 Revista Odisseiahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessTiradentes, RodrigoMouta Marques, Priscilla2022-12-30T19:12:41Zoai:periodicos.ufrn.br:article/28938Revistahttps://periodicos.ufrn.br/odisseia/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufrn.br/odisseia/oai||revistaodisseia2016@gmail.com1983-24351983-2435opendoar:2022-12-30T19:12:41Revista odisséia - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN)false
