Manual de los buenos modales

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). In line with the cognitive approach, the investigation also explores the link between the pragmatic uses of the markers and the conceptualization of their lexical bases (the verb forms). The findings stress the importance of an integrated approach to the description of markers.
