Resumo

This study deals with the grammaticalization process of the aspectual periphrasis tenir + participle in Old Catalan. Our point of departure is the dyachronic study (13th–16th centuries) of the semantic reanalysis of tenir + participle. In order to do so, we have embarked in corpora analysis and have adopted a theoretical framework taken from the Cognitive Linguistics. The change started in contexts in which the participle had a predicative function oriented to a direct object selected by tenir, with a durative-resultative value. As the result of gradual subjectification caused by contextually invited inferences, the construction will assume more subjective values between the 15th and 16th centuries. From these meanings, we observe the emergence – in the mid-15th century – of pragmatic uses of an intersubjective nature.
