The aim of this paper is to demonstrate that the conceptual tools of the metaoperational grammar (Henri Adamczewski) permit explain (not simply describe!) the functioning of the Spanish operators en efecto and efectivamente. These operators are the markers of an operation of sentence-building that targets the predicative link. Our assumption is that the speaker when using en efecto presents himself as a guarantor of the predicative link that has just been presented as an object of discourse. With efectivamente however the speaker presents himself as a guarantor authorized to close the discussion on this link. Keywords: Metaoperational grammar – operations of sentence-building – metalinguistic markers – predicative link – speaker’s attitude – contextual interpretations.

Abstract
The aim of this paper is to demonstrate that the conceptual tools of the metaoperational grammar (Henri Adamczewski) permit explain (not simply describe!) the functioning of the Spanish operators en efecto and efectivamente. These operators are the markers of an operation of sentence-building that targets the predicative link. Our assumption is that the speaker when using en efecto presents himself as a guarantor of the predicative link that has just been presented as an object of discourse. With efectivamente however the speaker presents himself as a guarantor authorized to close the discussion on this link. Keywords: Metaoperational grammar – operations of sentence-building – metalinguistic markers – predicative link – speaker’s attitude – contextual interpretations.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
