| Sumario: | Tamazulapam mixe is a final verb language (Santiago 2015). The sentence is organized by four preverbal positions and one postverbal position (top-x-arg-y-v-z). The topic presents its own intonational contour, X or focus is occupied by a single element, followed by the central arguments and Y is occupied by adverbs, indefinite pronouns, secondary predicates or a relational preverb. The posverbal position, Z or extraposed element is occupied by some adverbs of the Y position, by central arguments or by a complex sentence. This article focuses on the study of the central arguments of subject for intransitive, agent and primary object for transitive in position Z. I will justify that the extraposed argument is systematically information given in the discourse, they do not present a pause between the predicate and the dislocated element, and are extraposed. The central arguments in position Z, by not correlating with a pronoun in a preverbal position, I analyze them as intraclausal arguments, on the other hand, when a nominal phrase or a pronoun in position Z correlates with a pronoun in a preverbal position, automatically the postverbal argument is assumed as antitopic, that is, it will be analyzed as an argument outside the simple sentence. |
