Remapping variable subject position in Spanish intransitives
In Spanish, a SVO language with variable word order, post-verbal subjects have been proposed to be favored for
particular verb categories. For instance, based on agentivity, unaccusatives are proposed to favor VS as a whole. Motion verbs are
regarded as unaccusatives generally favoring VS order. An alternative analysis is presented here, using data from two
conversational corpora. Motion verbs are recategorized based on their predicted tendency to include adverbials in the sentence and
compared with other unaccusatives. Motion verbs are divided according to their Deictic Function (Talmy 2000) into “come” verbs (i.e., “motion-toward-the-center,” that is, the speaker), and “go” verbs.
“Come” verbs do not often require target specification through an adverbial, whereas “go” verbs do. Adverbials were found to
appear as post-verbal path specification in “go” verbs; due to weight factors, such specifiers favor pre-verbal subjects.
Importantly, even when no modifier is present, trends persist, suggesting entrenchment of usage patterns.
