The article defends the complementarity of two functionalist theoretical assumptions for the study of linguistic change that derives from the formation of verbally based discourse markers ver (see) in Portuguese, as in vejamos and veja lá. We assume that grammaticalization (GIVÓN, 1979; HOPPER, 1991) and grammatical constructionalization (TRAUGOTT and TROUSDALE, 2013; HILPERT, 2014) can be made compatible for the description and analysis of these constituents, as proposed in Traugott (2021), from the contexts of use of these elements (DIEWALD and SMIRNOVA, 2012).Downloads
