Nesta dissertação, nosso objetivo é verificar a mudança linguística do Tétum, uma das dezesseis línguas timorenses, definida como oficial em parceria com o Português. Essa mudança é observada a partir de um processo provocado por fatores externos tendo em vista a situação de Timor-Leste como um país anteriormente dependente de outras nações, e, por isso, sujeito às constantes mudanças relacionadas à imposição do poder. Pelo fato de o Timor-Leste ter atravessado diferentes situações, foi necessário fazer uma descrição do ponto de vista diacrônico de seu processo histórico, no sentido de verificar as etapas pelas quais o Tétum foi sofrendo alterações devidas a uma imposição e não a uma mudança natural da língua. Levando em conta a imposição das normas linguísticas pelas instâncias do poder, temos como objetivo específico analisar os empréstimos do Português no Tétum veiculados em textos de jornais que circulam em Timor-Leste para verificar se o uso da língua resultante dessa imposição poderá responder aos princípios baseados na lei que procura desenvolver o Tétum como língua oficial e preservá-la como uma das línguas nativas. O motivo da escolha dos jornais como corpus é devido à influência da linguagem veiculada pela mídia, e, à influência do poder materializada nesses textos. / In this dissertation, our objective is to verify the linguistic change of Tétun, one of the sixteen Timorese languages, defined as co-official language along with Portuguese. This change has been observed from a process provoked by external factors in view of the situation of Timor-Leste as a country previously dependent of other nations, and, therefore, it is subject to the constant changes related to the imposition of the power. For the fact of Timor-Leste having undergone different situations, it was necessary to make a description of the diachronic point of view of its historical process, in the sense of verifying the stages for which the Tétun was suffering from alterations due to an imposition and not to a natural change from the language. Taking into account the imposition of the linguistics norms by the stages of the power, we have as specific objective to analyze the use of the Portuguese language in Tétum diffused in the texts of news papers that circulate throughout Timor-Leste, to verify if the use of the language resulting from this imposition will be able to answer to the principles based on the law that it looks to develop the Tétun as official language and to preserve it as one of the native languages. The reason of the choice of news papers as corpus, is caused by the influence of the language diffused by the media, and the influence of the power materialized in these texts.

We examined the behavior of complements in Brazilian Portuguese speech, and then compared the results with previous researches in the English language by Thompson and Hopper (2001) and in the Spanish language by V?zques (2004). In Brazil, there are no researches that treat this phenomenon in the discursive conversation, for that reason it justifies and reveals the importance of this research that aims to answer questions related to the transitivity of ordinary conversations. Thus, we describe, explain and analize the transitivity based on concrete linguistic data, provided by native speakers of Portuguese language, specifically, spontaneous talk of people from Natal-RN. We have used as theoretical assumptions the Functional Linguistics usage-based (LFCU), which gathers academics of North-American Functional Linguistics, inspired by Chafe (1979), Hopper and Thompson (1980), Thompson and Hopper (2001), Giv?n (2001), Bybee (2010), Traugott (2009, 2011), among others, as well as Cognitive Linguistics, presented by Langacker (1987), Taylor (1995), Tomasello (1998) and Goldberg(1995), among others. This data consists in conversations extracted from the corpus Banco Conversacional de Natal (FURTADO DA CUNHA). The results obtained from this work confirm the assertions defined by prior conducted studies on the transitivity in the conversation. The research showed that these three idioms, Spanish, Portuguese and English, despite the differences, they present a uniform behavior regarding their transitivity in the conversation. We intend, by this work, to contribute, in some way, to the comprehension of the focused linguistic phenomenon, likewise to build a finer scenario around of the transitivity in the Brasilian Portuguese / Este trabalho investiga o fen?meno da transitividade na conversa??o. Examinamos como os predicados transitivos se comportam no discurso do portugu?s brasileiro e, em seguida, comparamos os resultados com as pesquisas realizadas na l?ngua inglesa por Thompson e Hopper (2001) e na l?ngua espanhola por V?zques (2004). No Brasil, n?o h? pesquisas que contemplem esse fen?meno na conversa??o, o que justifica e revela a necessidade desta pesquisa, direcionada a elucidar quest?es que envolvem a transitividade em conversas espont?neas do dia a dia. Isso posto, descrevemos, explicamos e analisamos a transitividade com base em dados lingu?sticos concretos, produzidos por falantes da l?ngua portuguesa, especificamente, na fala espont?nea dos natalenses. Utilizamos os pressupostos te?ricos da Lingu?stica funcional Centrada no Uso (LFCU), que re?ne estudiosos da Lingu?stica funcional Norte-americana, inspirada em Chafe (1979), Hopper e Thompson (1980), Thompson e Hopper (2001), Giv?n (2001), Bybee (2010), Traugott (2009, 2011) entre outros, bem como da Lingu?stica Cognitiva, representada por Langacker (1987), Taylor (1995), Tomasello (1998) e Goldberg (1995), entre outros. O material de an?lise ? constitu?do por conversas extra?das do corpus Banco Conversacional de Natal (FURTADO DA CUNHA, 2011). Os resultados obtidos neste trabalho confirmam as asser??es defendidas pelos estudos anteriores sobre a transitividade na conversa??o. A pesquisa mostrou que as tr?s l?nguas, o espanhol, o portugu?s e o ingl?s, embora diferentes, apresentam um comportamento semelhante quanto ? transitividade na conversa??o. Esperamos, atrav?s deste trabalho, ter contribu?do de algum modo para a compreens?o do fen?meno lingu?stico pesquisado, bem como para a constitui??o de um quadro mais refinado acerca do fen?meno da transitividade no portugu?s contempor?neo

In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird der für die allgemeine Wissenschaftssprache des Deutschen charakteristische Bereich der figurativen Verben im Rahmen eines gebrauchsbasierten Ansatzes unter Verwendung korpuslinguistischer Methoden empirisch erfasst und beschrieben. Auf der Grundlage dieser Untersuchung wird ein integrativer Ansatz zur Erfassung und Beschreibung zentraler Wortschatzbereiche der allgemeinen Wissenschaftssprache entwickelt. Das so gewonnene integrative Beschreibungsmodell verbindet die Perspektiven bisheriger quantitativ-bestandsbezogener und bedeutungsorientiert-einheitenbezogener Ansätze und bezieht darüber hinaus sowohl formale als auch inhaltlich-funktionale Aspekte als Gliederungsprinzipien für die zu beschreibenden Wortschatzbereiche mit ein. Methodisch zeichnet es sich durch das Ineinandergreifen von korpusgesteuertem und korpusbasiertem Vorgehen aus. Die Ausarbeitung der Komponenten des Beschreibungsmodells wird auf mehreren Ebenen vorgelegt: Diese werden im ersten Kapitel zunächst ausgehend von einer Bestandsaufnahme vorliegender Arbeiten zur Beschreibung allgemein-wissenschaftlichen Wortschatzes formuliert. Im zweiten Kapitel werden sie im Rahmen eines gebrauchsbasierten Modells der Sprachbeschreibung, der Kognitiven Grammatik Langackers, sprachtheoretisch fundiert. Methodisch eingelöst findet sich diese theoretische Fundierung in den korpuslinguistischen Untersuchungen zu figurativen Verben, die Gegenstand der Kapitel drei und vier sind. Im fünften Kapitel werden die dabei gewonnenen Ergebnisse zu einer formbasiert-funktionalen Typologie figurativer Verben zusammengeführt. Kapitel sechs zeigt die mit dem vorgeschlagenen Ansatz verbundenen Transfermöglichkeiten zur Erfassung und Beschreibung anderer Bereiche des allgemein-wissenschaftlichen Wortschatzes auf. Kapitel sieben ordnet den Untersuchungsgegenstand der figurativen Verben und das entwickelte Beschreibungsmodell aus fremdsprachendidaktischer Perspektive ein und skizziert einen Vorschlag zur Vermittlung allgemein-wissenschaftlichen Wortschatzes. / Verbs like ‘ausgehen von’, ‘beziehen auf’ or ‘darstellen’ that contain semantically concrete basic verbs (gehen, ziehen, stellen) form an essential part of German general academic vocabulary, i.e. vocabulary that is used across disciplines. Adopting a corpus linguistic approach, the study develops a comprehensive description of these ‚figurative verbs‘. Based on a data-driven methodology it investigates the properties of this lexis and shows that figurative verbs containing typical recurring forms like -stellen, -führen, -gehen and others are highly relevant from a quantitative point of view. On the basis of the most prominently recurring formal parts, a core inventory of verbs is collected and described with respect to the areas of meaning expressed as well as regarding aspects of polysemy. Based on the empirical study, a model for the identification and description of vocabulary is developed, that integrates the hitherto separated quantitative - inventory based and meaning oriented - unit based perspectives. Moreover, it brings together aspects regarding form and function as means of structuring the vocabulary under description. Methodically, the model builds on a combination of the corpus-driven and the corpus-based approach. The model is elaborated as follows: In Chapter 1, important aspects of description that the model should meet are identified based on a survey of existing work on general academic language. Chapter 2 provides a linguistic foundation within the framework of usage-based language description. In particular, it draws on Langacker’s Cognitive Grammar, from which the concepts of linguistic unit and construal are adopted. Chapters 3 and 4 present the corpus linguistic investigations on figurative verbs. In Chapter 5, the empirical results are brought together in a form- as well as function-based typology of figurative verbs. Chapter 6 synthesizes the findings into a model and shows possibilities of application of the proposed approach to other areas of general academic vocabulary. Finally, Chapter 7 summarizes the results from the perspective of language pedagogy and outlines a proposal for the teaching of general academic vocabulary.
