The grammaticalization of verbal forms in the imperative mood in Río de la Plata Spanish

This paper intends to explore the formal and semantic properties of a set of grammaticalized verbal forms in the imperative mood in Río de la Plata Spanish, following previous work (cf. Kornfeld 2016, 2020, 2022, in press). We prove that imperative mood verbal forms are particularly productive as th...

Kornfeld 2016, 2020, 2022, in press). We prove that imperative mood verbal forms are particularly productive as the source of Rio de la Plata Spanish processes of grammaticalization, proposing that their outputs belong to two different syntactic categories. On one side, interjections (denominated “discourse markers” by literature) permit to express complete speech acts and have pragmatics meanings: warning (fijate/ vofi), hurry or encouragement (dale, meta/ metele, vamos), incredulity (andá, dale), admiration (mirá vos), etc. On the other side, modal, aspectual or polarity operators express grammatical meanings: emphatic negation (mirá si/ que), iterative aspect (dale, meta), surprise (jodeme, no me digas), proposal and world creation (dale), etc., and can be linked to different functional phrases in syntactic cartography (cf. specially Cinque 1999). Besides the descriptive contribution to the grammar of Río de la Plata Spanish, we intend to investigate, thus, a possibility of output of the grammaticalization of verbal forms in the imperative mood which had not been almost explored by previous literature of different frameworks. En este trabajo nos proponemos indagar en las propiedades formales y semánticas de las formas gramaticalizadas del imperativo en español rioplatense, retomando y sistematizando diversos trabajos anteriores (cfr. Kornfeld 2016, 2020, 2022, en prensa). Comprobamos que las formas verbales en imperativo son particularmente productivas en procesos de gramaticalización en español rioplatense y proponemos que dan lugar a dos clases de palabras. Por un lado, las interjecciones (que la bibliografía suele llamar “marcadores discursivos”) aportan significados pragmáticos que representan actos de habla completos: advertencia (fijate/ vofi), apuro o aliento (dale, meta/ metele, vamos), incredulidad (andá, dale), admiración (mirá vos), etc. Por otro lado, los operadores modales, aspectuales o de polaridad expresan diversos significados gramaticales: negación enfática (mirá si/ que), aspecto iterativo (dale, meta), sorpresa (jodeme, no me digas), propuesta y creación de mundo (dale), etc., y, por lo tanto, pueden asociarse con las distintas proyecciones funcionales de la cartografía sintáctica (en especial, cfr. Cinque 1999). Además del aporte descriptivo a la gramática del español rioplatense, pretendemos, así, investigar una posibilidad de output para la gramaticalización de los verbos en imperativo que había sido poco explorada en la bibliografía previa de distintos marcos teóricos.
