ASPECTO NO KAINGANG: UMA PROPOSTA DE DISCUSSÃO

Abstract

ABSTRACT: This article represents a cutting of my dissertation - 'Aspect in Kaingang' - in process at IEL, UNICAMP. The objective here is to present some field data and a discussion of some of the hypothesis that guide this investigation. The subject of the Aspect is quite controversial, as much in his theoretical treatment, as in the descriptions of Kaingang. In short, this article is concerned with the applicability, to the Kaingang language, of the notion of Aspect in some of the most average meanings and the eventuality of the application of the notion of Actionality.
