Abstract

The paper emphasizes the pragmatic and discursive extensions of a special verbal structure – at its origin, a Future Tense form – known in Romanian linguistics as presumptive mood (hereinafter: PRESUMPT). In terms of evidentiality, the PRESUMPT has two types of meanings: an inferential meaning, expressing an inference-based supposition, and also a reportative meaning, when the utterer does not take responsibility for the truthfulness of information from another source. These significances are very subtle and closely related to their context of use. That is why, sometimes, it is very difficult to distinguish one value from another. Therefore, Romanian PRESUMPT deploys in discourse pragmatic enrichments depending on the syntactic-enunciative structure it is inserted in or on some other parameters, such as: speaker’s epistemic stance, genre of discourse, intersubjectivity, and extends its core meaning of evidentiality through a range of discursive dimensions. Considering this situation, our approach outlines that a complex rhetorical strategy is involved in such contexts, where the PRESUMPT actualizes in fact only its prototypical feature [+placement in a subsequent relation (“ultériorité” – see Bres 2012. Conditionnel et ultériorité dans le passé: De la subjectivité à l’objectivité. In SHS Web of Conferences, Volume 1 (3ème Congrès Mondial de Linguistique Française), 1719–1730.)], exclusively marking the relation of subsequence of the hypothesis or of the quoted speech act (in counter-argumentative frames) compared to a previously mentioned state of facts.

互动中的罗马尼亚语推定:证据性及其他
本文强调罗马尼亚语言学中被称为推定语气(以下简称:PRESUMPT)的特殊动词结构--其起源是未来时态形式--的语用和话语扩展。就证据性而言,PRESUMPT 有两类意义:推理意义,表达基于推理的假设;报告意义,当说话人不对来自其他来源的信息的真实性负责时。这些意义都非常微妙,与使用语境密切相关。这就是为什么有时很难区分一种意义和另一种意义。因此,罗马尼亚语 PRESUMPT 在话语中根据其插入的句法-发音结构或其他参数(如说话人的认识论立场、话语体裁、主体间性)进行语用丰富,并通过一系列话语维度扩展其核心意义 "证据性"。考虑到这种情况,我们的方法概述了在这种语境中涉及的一种复杂的修辞策略,PRESUMPT 事实上只实现了其原型特征[+在后续关系中的位置("ultériorité"--见 Bres 2012。Conditionnel et ultériorité dans le passé: De la subjectivité à l'objectivité.In SHS Web of Conferences, Volume 1 (3ème Congrès Mondial de Linguistique Française),1719-1730.)],专门标记假设或引用的言语行为(在反驳框架中)与先前提到的事实状态相比的后续关系。

期刊介绍: Folia Linguistica covers all non-historical areas in the traditional disciplines of general linguistics (phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics), and also sociological, discoursal, computational and psychological aspects of language and linguistic theory. Other areas of central concern are grammaticalization and language typology. The journal consists of scientific articles presenting results of original research, review articles, overviews of research in specific areas, book reviews, and a miscellanea section carrying reports and discussion notes. In addition, proposals from prospective guest editors for occasional special issues on selected current topics are welcomed.
