A manifestação das diferentes modalidades no emprego do verbo auxiliar poder em português e em espanhol: análise do discurso de autoajuda

This paper aims to investigate the behavior of the modal verb poder as an auxiliary verb in text written in both two Romance languages, Brazilian Portuguese and Iberian Spanish. This research follows a functionalist language approach, more precisely the Dutch Functional Grammar tradition, based on the modality classification proposed by Hengeveld (2004). This author considers two main criteria: target of evaluation, and semantic domain of evaluation. Considering this classification, we analyze the use of the auxiliary verb poder in a corpus of self-help discourses, which currently enjoy enormous popularity in various parts of the world. Although in Portuguese the auxiliary verb poder is essentially an epistemic modal (cf. Neves 1999-2000) —which, according to the Hengeveld (2004), corresponds to the event-oriented epistemic modality—. However, our analysis show that, given the essentially optimistic nature of the discourse analyzed, the self-help discourse, the previously mentioned modal verb (poder) behaves predominantly as a participant-oriented facultative modal. This result demonstrates the importance of considering the context of occurrence of the verb poder in order to evaluate the effects of meaning associated with its use.

O comportamento do verbo modal poder no discurso de autoajuda: uma investigação no português e no espanhol

This paper aims to contribute with the studies on the modal verb poder as an auxiliary verb, by analyzing, from a functionalist perspective, how it behaves, both in Brazilian Portuguese and Spanish, in self-help discourse. In order to do so, we have resorted to the classification of modalities by Hengeveld (2004), with special focus on the notions of target of evaluation and domain of evaluation.

Distinções entre modalidade deôntica objetiva e subjetiva no português falado: o caso do verbo 'dever'

The modal distinctions proposed by Hengeveld (2004), reexamined by Hengeveld and Mackenzie (2008) within the Functional Discourse Grammar (FDG), consider the existence of five types of modality: facultative, deontic, volitive, epistemic and evidential. Taking into special account the deontic modality, there are evidences that it can be subdivided into objective and subjective, as analyzed by Olbertz and Gasparini-Bastos (2013) in auxiliary constructions of spoken Spanish. This wok aims to investigate the contextual elements that favor the interpretation of these two values when they are expressed by the modal auxiliary verb “dever” (must) in spoken Portuguese data.

Letramentos acadêmicos no ensino superior: aspectos verbo-visuais no processo de textualização em contexto semipresencial

Este trabalho situa-se na discussão sobre escrita na universidade e investiga o processo de textualização verbo-visual e extraverbal em contexto de Educação a Distância (EaD) semipresencial. Com base no conceito de letramentos acadêmicos, advindo dos Novos Estudos de Letramento, busca problematizar relação entre cor escolhida e imagem, no processo de produção do texto realizado por universitários (professores em formação), num Curso de Pedagogia semipresencial de uma universidade pública do Estado de São Paulo. Procura, assim, contribuir com os estudos da linguagem no que se refere ao estabelecimento de critérios para investigação da integração entre semioses diversas na constituição de conceito de “texto” não restrito ao reconhecimento de sua base gráfica.

Speech understanding in quiet and in noise with the bone-anchored hearing aids Baha Compact and Baha Divino

CONCLUSIONS: Speech understanding is better with the Baha Divino than with the Baha Compact in competing noise from the rear. No difference was found for speech understanding in quiet. Subjectively, overall sound quality and speech understanding were rated better for the Baha Divino. OBJECTIVES: To compare speech understanding in quiet and in noise and subjective ratings for two different bone-anchored hearing aids: the recently developed Baha Divino and the Baha Compact. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Seven adults with bilateral conductive or mixed hearing losses who were users of a bone-anchored hearing aid were tested with the Baha Compact in quiet and in noise. Tests were repeated after 3 months of use with the Baha Divino. RESULTS: There was no significant difference between the two types of Baha for speech understanding in quiet when tested with German numbers and monosyllabic words at presentation levels between 50 and 80 dB. For speech understanding in noise, an advantage of 2.3 dB for the Baha Divino vs the Baha Compact was found, if noise was emitted from a loudspeaker to the rear of the listener and the directional microphone noise reduction system was activated. Subjectively, the Baha Divino was rated statistically significantly better in terms of overall sound quality.
