Brazilian Portuguese, Copular Sentences, Prepositional PhrasesAbstract
Nominal sentences (or copular sentences) occur with both copulas in Brazilian Portuguese, i. e., ser and estar. In relation to predication in these sentences, predicate selects its subject. Thus, prepositional phrases predicate selects its subject and, depending on the head of the preposition, change the meaning of the phrase it follows. This papers aims to describe the syntactic contexts, under-researched in both descriptive and theoretical terms, in which the predicates headed by preposition com “with” appear combined to ser and estar. In order to do so, we use corpora and we verify a large occurrence of this prepositional phrase with the verbo estar. Therefore, we analyze quantitatively by inductive method, documents – manuscripts and printed ones – from the Century XVIII to Century XX from the state of Pernambuco.
