A Construção Concessivo-Comparativa Anteposta Enfática “ATÉ QUE PARA X, Y”: elementos holisticamente empregados para expressar concessividade e comparação

The aim of this paper is to present some results of the study of Emphatic Prefixed Concessive- Comparative Construction (henceforth CCCAE), schematized by “ate que para x, y” and instantiated in utterances such as “ Ate que para um iniciante me sai bem ”. The theoretical approach adopted is the Construction Grammar (GOLDBERG, 1995, 2006, FILLMORE, LEE-GOLDMAN & RHOMIEUX, 2012), and also the approaches of concessivity (KA–NIG, 1985), and linguistic comparison (HASEGAWA et al., 2010). We propose to legitimize our object of study as a Concessive-Comparative Construction. From the results of the empirical data analysis, we discuss some semantic-pragmatic aspects of the CCCAE and emphasize that this construction presents the coreferentiality between x and y as the most central configuration. --- DOI:  http://dx.doi.org/10.31513/linguistica.2018.v14n1a15351
