Abstract
[Resumo] Neste artigo, caracterizam-se os valores do marcador discursivo ‘claro’ no Português europeu contemporâneo, a partir de dados recolhidos no Corpus de Referência do Português Contemporâneo. Distinguem-se dois contextos de ocorrência do marcador: (i) em intervenções reativas, num contexto de diálogo, nas quais o marcador funciona quer como resposta enfática a perguntas ou pedidos, quer como expressão de acordo, quer ainda como mero sinal de retroalimentação conversacional e (ii) em intervenções de um só participante, em que o marcador funciona como modalizador de reforço epistémico. Na secção final do artigo, avança-se uma hipótese sobre o processo de gramaticalização que terá conduzido ao atual marcador.
[Abstract] The aim of this paper is the characterization of the uses of the discourse marker ‘claro’ in contemporary European Portuguese, based on empirical data collected from the Reference Corpus of Contemporary Portuguese. Two contexts of use were found: (i) reactive interventions, in dialogue, where the marker may function as an emphatic answer to questions or requests, as an expression of agreement or as a filler; (ii) interventions of a single participant, where the marker behaves as an epistemic modal operator. In the last section, a hypothesis on the grammaticalization path of the marker is put forward.
