Sobre a perda parcial do movimento do verbo no português brasileiro: a analiticização do tempo futuro
I argue that, contrary to Biberauer& Roberts’s (2010) analysis, verb (still) moves (partially) in BP. I show that an analyticization process of futurity entailed loss of verb movement to a higher head (TP), but the verb still moves to a lower one, namely (WollP). The lack of temporal meaning...

| Summary: | I argue that, contrary to Biberauer& Roberts’s (2010) analysis, verb (still) moves (partially) in BP. I show that an analyticization process of futurity entailed loss of verb movement to a higher head (TP), but the verb still moves to a lower one, namely (WollP). The lack of temporal meaning of synthetic future in spoken BP, the licensing of VP ellipsis and the order of ‘sempre' adverb suggest that some landing movement has been altered. Futurity temporal meaning, now, is derived from irrealis (mood) features,not from a temporal one, as it was until the XIX century. |
