Abstract

The existence of postverbal negation in Romance languages has been accounted for in terms of contact with African languages. This work aims at providing evidence that the emergence of double and final negatives in Brazilian Portuguese (BP) is the result of a process of change motivated by the interaction of rival pressures on the linguistic system. The analysis combines synchronic and diachronicdata and is based on the model of competing Motivations, as formulated in the framework of Contemporary Functional Linguistics by Haiman (1985), Du Bois (1985) and Givón (1995).
