Resumo: This paper investigates how Karitiana (a Tupian language, branch Arikém, located in Rondônia, Brazil; population: 396 people - 330 speakers) introduces extra arguments into the basic verbal structures. In order to analyze and discuss the data, we adopted two theoretical frameworks, e.g., (i) the Hale and Keyser (2002)’s theory of argument structure and (ii) the theory of applicative heads, elaborated by Pylkkänen (2008). In the former proposal, Karitiana displays four verbal classes (intransitive, intransitive with oblique objects, transitive and ditransitive verbs) while, in the latter, the language has only two verbal classes (intransitive and transitive verbs). In Pylkkänen’s framework, the Karitiana verbal system exhibits two basic structures in which additional arguments are added by applicative or voice nuclei. In causatives, voices only introduce higher arguments into the structures. However, applicative heads are divided into two types – high and low. The higher head inserts an extra argument above the VP; the lower one inserts the argument internally into the VP.

Adota-se, para análise e discussão dos dados, duas propostas teóricas (i) a teoria de estrutura argumental de Hale e Keyser (2002) e (ii) a proposta teórica de núcleos aplicativos de Pylkkänen (2008). Na proposta teórica (i), Karitiana apresenta quatro tipos de verbos (1 - intransitivo, 2 - intransitivo com objeto oblíquo, 3 - transitivo e 4 - bitransitivo), já na segunda proposta, por sua vez, mais econômica, a língua é analisada como tendo apenas dois tipos verbais (1 - intransitivo e 2 - transitivo). Nesta última, o sistema verbal Karitiana apresenta duas estruturas básicas em que argumentos extras são incrementados por meio de núcleos aplicativos e Voice. Este adiciona argumentos altos na estrutura em estruturas causativas. Os aplicativos são de dois tipos, isto é, o alto que insere um argumento extra acima do VP e o baixo que adiciona argumentos extras abaixo ou internamente ao VP.UNESP2020-10-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/alfa/article/view/1167810.1590/1981-5794-e11678ALFA: Revista de Linguística; v. 64 (2020)1981-5794reponame:Alfa (São José do Rio Preto.
