Abstract

This text presents an analysis of three types of nominalization of the infinitive in European Portuguese, characterized by distinct syntactic and semantic properties but all indicated by the presence of a determiner to the left of the infinitive. In the nominal infinitive, which has more nominal than verbal properties, a process is denoted, which is why culmination verbs are forbidden in most cases. In the literature it has also been stated that transitive verbs cannot be used as nominal infinitives. However, the presence of some aspectual modifiers that force a durative and unbounded process reading may allow the occurrence of these verbs. There is also the possibility of nominalizing a full infinitival clause, denoting a fact. Since this contains verbal and tensed properties, it may contain the inflected infinitive and in most cases involves the so called Aux-to-Comp movement, it is thus analyzed here as the nominalization of CP.
葡萄牙语不定式的时态和非时态名词化
本文分析了欧洲葡萄牙语中不定式的三种类型的名词化,它们具有独特的句法和语义特性,但都由不定式左侧的限定词表示。名词性不定式的名词性比动词性更强,它表示的是一个过程,这就是为什么在大多数情况下禁止使用词性动词的原因。在文献中也有人指出,及物动词不能用作名义不定式。然而,某些方面修饰语的存在会强制进行持续和无界的过程读取,这可能会允许出现这些动词。也有可能将一个完整的不定式从句名化,表示一个事实。由于这包含动词性和时态性质,它可能包含不定式的屈折变化,并且在大多数情况下涉及所谓的从生到比的运动,因此这里将其作为CP的名词化进行分析。
