This study focuses on the polyfunctionality of discourse markers derived from verbs of motion in Spanish. Based on an extensive corpus of spoken language it provides a detailed analysis of the association between their functional behavior and their concrete and formal expression (position, prosody, combinations).

The findings stress the importance of an integrated approach to the description of markers.
